ISSUE 55: TOURING TO BOSNIA AND THE BALKANS

Issue: Touring to Bosnia and the Balkans

Convener(s): Clara Giraud (PanicLab)

Participants: Alex Einsenberg, Sasha Dauren

Summary of discussion, conclusions and/or recommendations:

Touring a show about the war in Yougoslavia from a Bosnian point of view to Serbia and Croatia might be tricky politically. The young and open artists are keen, but don’t necessarily want to talk about the war.

However, being an outsider in this context can be a positive point.

Best to contact theatres and festivals with a printed and posted info pack in Cyrillic, rather than email.
