LATE NIGHT SERIES
Late
Nite Series
is
a platform within the Singapore Arts Festival that is created to showcase
innovative and experimental pieces by fledgling and promising artists and arts
groups. Priority of consideration is accorded to proposals that incorporate the
effective use of multimedia elements. If your proposal is selected for the Late Nite Series, you will
enjoy the following benefits:
·
Project fund of between $5,000 - $8,000
·
Retain 80% of ticket proceeds from performances
·
Rehearsal space and time (subject to nature of performance)
·
Publicity support
Our
Target Audience
Contrary
to popular belief, the Late
Nite Series does not target victims of insomnia who are seeking
somnambulistic relief in haphazard attempts at genre-mixing, schizophrenic
stagework. We are however looking for original pieces that cleverly meld the
merits of multimedia, theatre, modern dance, jazz, contemporary music, film, and
any other creative formats that your muse suggests.
Past
Late Nite Series performances have captured audiences'
imagination at unusual venues like Sculpture Square and Zouk. If you have an
idea for a site-specific performance, let us know in advance so that we can help
in facilitating the realisation of this dream.
So
hit us with your best shot! Impress the socks off of us with your detailed
proposal (see attached form), or meet up with us during the scheduled briefing
session on 22 September, 2001, to discuss your ideas.
Begin
your journey to a standing ovation with the Late Nite Series…
