ITEAC Horizon Event 2022

The build-up to ITEAC 2023 begins with a day-long series of 45 minute sessions that begin in Tokyo and follow the sun around the world to end 13 hours later in Bogota. You can follow the day live by registering here, or catch up on each session online afterwards.

Beginning our exploration of the themes of Environmental Sustainability, Digital and Community, we’ll be looking at recent Japanese theatres designed to engage with their communities, at cutting-edge work from New York and London in virtual and augmented reality.

We’ll examine sustainability in Australia, and the push to support digital development across Hong Kong, Seoul and Singapore. We’ll hear a debate from Paris about the theatre of the future, and be inspired by the visionary work of Idartes in Colombia. National Theatre Wales has integrated communities into its decision-making. Surprise Lab in Taiwan has reached out to audiences beyond theatre. From Mumbai we'll look at the challenge of creating new communities for a new building, while from Mexico and Colombia we discuss how to create spaces for performance in vulnerable communities, and look at how the ground-breaking Art of Facing Fear used digital innovation creatively to generate a global experience of performance.

Join theatre-makers around the world on 6th October in a diverse and wide-ranging exploration of the key challenges facing global theatre.
