PEEK SHOW 15Applications close October 6, 2023Impulse Theatre brings its fifteenth evening of new work presentation to the Intrepid Studio as part of Impulse Theatre’s Peek Fest, an annual festival on Lekwungen Territory/Victoria running November 6 to 25, 2023. Peek Show is an informal and exciting experience between artists and patrons, all discovering new stories and worlds for the first time. Peek Show showcases new works from provincial performing artists, from text, to dance, to somewhere in-between. Peek Show 15 takes place at the Intrepid Studio (1609 Blanshard), a 40 seat venue that has street level access, wheelchair accessible seating configurations, and two gender neutral washrooms. About Peek Fest: Impulse Theatre’s Peek Fest is an annual festival on Lekwungen Territory/Victoria running November 6 to 25, 2023. The festival offers an exciting new look at work-in-development from some of the province’s most innovative creators and contributes to the development and growth of local arts workers through showcases, workshops, and community events. We are seeking five to six in-development works from regional performing artists/companies/collectives..
Adjudication is based on your demonstration of ability to execute the project, artistic history, and available resources. Priority is granted to multidisciplinary projects. Please note: due to the limited tech and performance time, technical requirements must be left to a minimum. Live sound cannot be connected to the PA system. IMPULSE PROVIDES:
