Open Call Odin Home
ODIN HOME
Nine days of training, performances, films, barters and theatre anthropology
led by Eugenio Barba and Odin Teatret’s actors
16 -25 July 2024
ODIN HOME is an occasion to become personally acquainted with the history, the activities and the members of one of the oldest theatre groups in Europe. At the same time, it is a 9-day working residence devised for only 20 participants.
It is led by Eugenio Barba and Odin Teatret’s actors. The intensive programme starts early in the morning and ends in the evening with performances, work demonstrations and films. The working seances will deal theoretically and practically with the evolution of the training and of the actor/dancer’s dramaturgy at Odin Teatret. Eugenio Barba will clarify the principles of Theatre Anthropology as well as those of his work as a director. Julia Varley will comment upon the Magdalena Project (a network of women in theatre) and her Festival Transit. There will be occasions for “barters”, exchanges through cultural expressions, professional knowledge, discussions and personal dialogues.
ODIN HOME is organised by Brogården Kulturvæksthus (an artist in residency space) and Teatret OM (Regional Theatre in Ringkøbing-Skjern Municipality), and is supported by the town of Ringkøbing (Denmark). It will take place at Brogården’s historical building where participants and the teaching staff will live together. The participation fee of DKK 4,000 (550 euro) covers food, lodging in shared rooms and participation during the whole period.
For those interested, in continuation of Odin Home, Transit mini Festival will take place at Stendis Lejren, Vinderup, 27 July to 3 August 2024. More information on Transit Next Forum
ODIN HOME participants are required to arrive at Brogården Kulturvæksthus in Ringkøbing no later than 4:00 p.m. on 16 July 2024 and leave after breakfast on 25 July.
