Teatro Municipal do Porto, together with eleven European institutions with a strong international component, are working on a new project, called Future Laboratory. A performing arts network that seeks to bring artists and audiences into dialogue, in order to discover the European narratives of tomorrow. Determined to better integrate marginalised, isolated and disengaged communities in their activities both on and off stage and acutely aware of the impact the pandemic has had on the next generation, the partners have set up an international research project to support the career and international development of emerging artists.
Over the course of 30 months, 15 artists (including de Portuguese Odete) selected through an international open call will participate in three research residencies in three different cities. The work base of residences in the city of Porto will be developed at CAMPUS Paulo Cunha e Silva. Each host institution will offer the artists the opportunity to connect with local resources including research organisations, foundations, artists and members of their communities.
During the research residencies, the artists will develop a concept idea for a production. This idea will be based on the most urgent issues they have identified around the larger theme of social inclusion and fed by new and missing narratives they feel need to be told on our stages tomorrow.
