SELECTION CRITERIA AND PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS
The Fair’s main target
consists of promoting
the latest professional
theatrical productions
coming from both the
national and
international market,
paying special attention
to those companies from
Castilla y León,
Extremadura and
Portugal. The event is
configured as a point of
encounter and as a space
for promoting creativity
through the offering of
opportunities to
encourage the market
dynamics in the field
and put it into artistic
value.
The presence of
companies in the Fair is
reflected in three
different sections:
- their shows may be
selected as promotional
performances in
the official programming
of the Fair;
- they may participate
with different proposals
in the section of complementary
activities;
-and, in any case, they
are allowed to take part
in the Virtual
Fair,
where all the data
coming from the
registered companies are
joined together –of both
programmed and not
programmed shows- with
the aim that programmers
and cultural operators
obtain their information
and contact.
The Selection Committe
values:
- Quality and artistic
interest
- The fact that the show
fits in the different
areas of programming
during the Fair.
- The interest created
amongst professionals
and audience attending
the Fair.
-
The proposal of premiere
during the Fair and the
proposal of premiere in
Spanish language will be
positively valued.
Works exclusively
premiered throughout
2017 and 2018, as
well as shows not yet
performed in Spanish
language, will be
accepted.
Those proposals
adjusting to the spatial
and technical available
conditions, showing
quality, innovation and
creativity in every
level and developing new
dramatic possibilities,
will be chosen with the
aim of creating a
dynamic, balanced and
striking programming.
