20th Annual International Theatre Exchange

Friday 4 Oct 2013
9.30am
Wood Quay Venue

The 20th consecutive International Theatre Exchange is a one-day gathering of influential performing arts presenters and producers from across the globe. Invited by ITI, they will engage with Irish companies and artists who have ‘ready for export’ productions or are working on projects with an attractive international dimension. The International Theatre Exchange is funded by the Arts Council with international guests’ participation supported by Culture Ireland.

Comprising bespoke one-to-one meetings, networking events and ‘in development’ performances, the Exchange is a must for Irish producers of professional theatre who have an eye to international platforms and an ambition to build international touring networks. To participate in this event you must register in advance and priority is given to companies that are presenting productions or “In-Developments” in this years Dublin Theatre Festival.

Since its inception in 1994, ITI has pioneered international networking and promotion for Irish theatre companies and artists and, in the past two years, as a result of this event, Irish work has  been invited to perform in London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Hong Kong, Auckland, Sydney, Tasmania, Tampere, Paris, Wiesbaden and New York.
