For more than twenty years, we have been navigating the field of contemporary performing arts through new narrative forms and cross-cultural collaborations. <\/p><p>Through the festivals, projects, and programmes we have developed over the past two decades, we create space for the emergence of new texts and approach playwriting not simply as something to be supported, but as a collaborative practice of creation.
