Stages call to artists and child artists
View(s):Stages Theatre Group, set up in 2000 to promote socially and politically challenging original Sri Lankan theatre, has launched an islandwide initiative to connect artists with children and communities to address the challenges faced by children because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
‘Children in Lockdown’ supports artists to work with children helping them deal with the challenges of the pandemic, or helping adults understand what children are going through. This project, curated by Stages Theatre Group and supported by Kindernothilfe (KNH), will commission artists in Sri Lanka to respond creatively to the theme of ‘Children in Lockdown’ by either producing artworks such as plays, books, visual art, scripts, films, music, research etc or conducting workshops for children or institutions that support children (schools, child rights organizations etc.).
Child artists are also encouraged to apply. Applications close by midnight on March 5. To apply or for more information please see: https://www.stages.lk/artistcommissioning
