either kill their father/mother or commit sui-cide. They all choose death in the end. Be-cause the older generation, not exactly stu-pid, is the cleverer, the more cunning, is better able to manipulate events; and so, at the end of each play the stage is littered with foiled ambitions and frustrated dreams of the fu-ture. For the older generation there is nothing left but to stand by, blubbering as the future is carried to the grave, and wait for their own demise. Finita la comedia! The curtain drops.

Now that we find ourselves confronted once again with political and social changes, spur-red on by a financial crisis, this intergenera-tional tension becomes tangible again, in the performing arts as well. As early on as during the preliminary proposals for these cuts, the generation currently in power has shown that it is the cleverer and the more cunning, and has managed to control the debate on all levels of government. After all, the proposed cuts in art education and in the production houses and the ‘theaterwerkplaatsen’ [i.e. the theatres that focus on coaching, research and experiment] serve a deathly blow to up-and-coming talent, and in this sense, to the future of the Dutch performing arts. Talented

The twenty-second edition of ITs Festi-val Amsterdam takes place on the eve of some of the most drastic changes in the establishment of the Dutch theatre. Changes that will

no doubt draw heavily on the future of this festival, the biggest European festival for young performing artists. Artists who have completed their education, and who are bur-sting with creative energy and ready to go. The canon of theatre classics contains a great number of plays in which the established generation, feeling the pressure of changing political and social circumstances, refuses to make way for an up-and-coming genera-tion and hangs on to its achievements like grim death: Aeschylus’s Oresteia, Shake-speare’s Hamlet, Checkov’s Seagull, Schnitz-ler’s Lonely Way. Plays that demonstrate how in every new age the established order will frustrate a young generation’s dreams of the future and deny it access to resources and power. In each of the plays mentioned above the young protagonists then face the choice:

Brace yourselves

From Thursday 23 June - Friday 1 July 2011 Amsterdam’s city centre will once again be brim-ming over with young talent. The participants in ITs, the International Theatre School Festi-val Amsterdam, will be taking hold of the theatres. Young graduating performing artists from the Netherlands and abroad will be presenting themselves to a broad audience, consisting of fans of the theatre, casting agencies, programmers and the press. The ITs Festival Amster-dam is the stepping stone to a professional career for these young stage beasts. Practically every genre within the performing arts will be represented: drama, mime, dance, music theatre etc. With over 50 unique productions, and a varied fringe programme of after talks, work-shops, debates, lectures and dazzling afterparties, ITs Festival Amsterdam is the biggest festival of its kind in Europe. ITs Festival Amsterdam draws around 10.000 visitors each year.

young artists will be denied education and training, and should they survive, they will then be denied access to a professional career as well. On the other hand, the powers that be have seen to it that their preliminary proposals contain a consolidation of the ar-tistic and financial interests of the key institu-tions, i.e. the establishment.

All of this means that the next generation of performing artists must brace itself. All the more reason for ITs, which operates on the threshold between education and a professio-nal career, to work even harder at helping our talented young artists on their way. ITs is going to use all of its resources and power to offer talented young artists the stage they deserve. Preferably the European stages, now that the load seems to be distributed so unequally in our own country. ITs is not going to settle for foiled ambitions and frustrated dreams of the future. ITs will not stand by, blubbering as the future is carried to its grave!

I wish you all a glowing and hopeful ITs 2011!

Theu Boermans, Artistic Director ITs Festival Amsterdam

I represented the Netherlands at the Neu/Now Festival in Nantes 2010 in which a small group of the most exciting graduating talents of Europe were brought together. I now feel I have the support of a unique group of international artists making their way in the field with me. I can’t wait.

How do the camera man, the editor and the sound man on a film set view the work of the actors, and what kind of impact do they have on their acting? And how can they help each other create a beautiful film? In this ACT Clinic we give the floor to the specialists, who will talk about their profes-sion and ours from their own perspective. After all, good acting is not enough to make a great movie. With the help of their favourite good and bad movie scenes a director, an editor, a cameraman/woman, a floor manager, a lighting director and a sound recordist will show us each discipli-ne’s contribution in the making of a movie. This clinic will offer you an opportunity to ask all those questions you never get around to asking while you are on the set.

inTernaTional young maKers’ exchange

The International Young makers’ Exchange (IYmE) sends young theatre makers out into the world. IYmE is a collaboration between nine European theatre festivals that are keen to allow young talents and their performances to tour. Now you are performing at ITs, and the next thing you know, you might be on a stage in Bilbao, Paris, Kosovo, or rome. In this way many talented young artists have already benefited from a unique experience at the start of their careers and built an international network. IYmE will receive support from the European union at least until 2013, so we are able to offer many more performances such an international tour. Would you like to take your show on tour? Apply with Janneke ro-bers, [email protected] or check out www.iyme.eu for further info. Of course you can also see international perfor-mances by these young artists at ITs! They can be recognised by the IYmE logo.

ITS IN CONTExT

The Theater Instituut Nederland wants to bridge the gap between the academic research of theatre studies and the practical realities of crea-ting drama, so it set up the Theaterscriptieprijs, the theatre thesis award, in 2011. Four master’s theses on the Dutch and Flemish theatre cultures with a score of 8 or higher have been nominated. The nominees have turned their theses into essays and the best essay will win the sum of €500. The award will be presented for the first time during this year’s ITs Festival! Curious about these talented academics? From the beginning of June you can read the essays through www.tin.nl.

If there is anything that binds us people, it is our need to get together. We dance and we drink. We celebrate life and death, always and every-where. But what is a party and why do we leave the house to go to one? Because it is important to celebrate life? To fight off boredom? To not be alone? Plunge yourself into the night and celebrate with us.

Als iets ons mensen bindt, dan is het de behoefte om bij elkaar te komen. We dansen en we drinken. We vieren het leven en de dood, overal en altijd.

Enclosed in every beginning lies an ending; every ending holds a beginning. We inhale, and are doomed to exhale. For these gradua-tes, Plukt ons! (Pick us!) is a rite of passage in which life and drama fertilise each other. They perform their act; an elegant movement, a melodious intonation. They curse, they cry, they grin, they sing. They are passed in review. The stage is a garden, they are the cherries.

In elk begin ligt een einde besloten, in elk einde een begin. We ademen in en zijn gedoemd om uit te ademen. Plukt ons! is voor deze afstudeerders een overgangsritueel waarin theater en het leven elkaar bestui-ven. Ze voeren hun kunstje op; een ele-gante beweging, een melodieuze intona-tie. Ze vloeken, ze huilen, ze grijnzen, ze zingen. Ze passe-ren de revue. Het to-neel is de tuin, zij zijn de kersen.

The four are protesting. Against art funding and defence. Against cuts in education, AIDS research and social services. They live in New York and they are amazed to see that, in spite of their left-wing ideals, the Third World is still being exploited. And so they are protesting, against everything and everyone, soothing their conscience. until a murder thoroughly puts their morals to the test. Dutch and german students join forces in this performance packed with paradoxes.

De vier protesteren. Tegen kunstsubsidies en tegen defensie. Tegen bezuinigingen op onderwijs, AIDSonderzoek en sociale voorzie-ningen. Ze wonen in New York en zijn verbijsterd dat,ondanks hun linkse idealen, de Derde Wereld nog steeds wordt uitgebuit. Dus protesteren ze, tegen alles en iedereen en sussen ze zo hun geweten. Een moord stelt hun moraal danig op de proef. Neder-landse en Duitse studenten bundelen hun krachten in een voor-stelling vol paradoxen.

“I’m just a jealous guy...” - John Lennon Jealousy is blind envy, it is spite, it is the green-eyed monster

casting its shadow over everything. Blinds, ‘jaloezie’ in Dutch, are thick skins or plastic strips, hanging parallel, fixed with cords. Together they form a horizontal set of bars that can be

pulled up or down to block the sunlight. These six graduates show us the depth, width, length and height of the concept of

‘jaloezie’.

“I’m just a jealous guy...” - John Lennon Jaloezie is blinde afgunst, is nijd, is het groene monster dat alles overschaduwt. Jaloezieën zijn dikke huiden of kunststof stroken, evenwijdig bevestigd aan koorden. Zij vormen tezamen een hori-zontaal traliewerk dat open neergelaten kan worden en het zonlicht tegenhoudt. Deze zes afstudeerders tonen de diepte, de breedte, de lengte en de hoogte van het concept ‘jaloezie’.

What is the perfect way to sit down, fall down, get up? Look at the man. Look, and see how he is at it. Busy making a life in this world. What is this man thinking? What is he thinking of? Happiness, love, death? There he is, we see him moving. Why is he moving the way he does? What moves him? Among the old set pieces belonging to Bambie these fourth year students set out to explore the mystery that is man.

Wat is de perfecte manier om te gaan zitten, vallen, opstaan? Kijk naar de mensch. Kijk, zie hoe hij bezig is. Bezig is te leven in deze wereld. Wat denkt deze mensch? Waar denkt hij aan? Geluk, lief-de, dood? Daar is hij, we zien hem bewegen. Waarom beweegt hij zo? Wat beweegt hem? In oude decorstukken van Bambie gaan deze vierdejaars op zoek naar het mysterie dat de mensch is.

The Teylers museum in Haarlem is full of books. Books about major discoveries, faraway expeditions, and revolutionary inventions. The institute was founded during the Enlightenment and abounds with knowledge, positive science and democracy. Two students have turned the book titles into a drama text, into poetry. Funny, fascina-ting, moving, and absurd is the bridge they build between the opti-mistic ideologies of the past, and the here-and-now of the theatre.

Het Teylers Museum in Haarlem staat vol boeken. Boeken over grote ontdekkingen, verre expedities en revolutionaire uitvin-dingen. Het instituut werd opgericht tijdens de Verlichting en zindert van kennis, positieve wetenschappen en democratie. De boektitels worden door twee studenten omgevormd tot een theatertekst, tot poëzie. Grappig, fascinerend, ontroerend en absurd slaan ze een brug tussen de optimistische ideologieën van toen en het hier en nu van het theater.

“None of us can do anything about the things that change us.” Seven twenty-somethings get together. They want to be with each other, but they live in separate worlds. A world of achievements and ambi-tion pitted against a world of nice people who surround themselves with friends, sports, and art. In the one world everyone is talented, but honesty loses out to ambition. In the other world, beefcakes secretly play with toy trains and sensual ladies sing children’s songs.

“Niemand van ons kan iets doen tegen de dingen die ons veran-deren.” Zeven twintigers komen samen. Ze willen bij elkaar zijn, maar leven in gescheiden werelden. Een wereld van prestatie en ambitie tegenover een wereld van keurige mensen die zich om-ringen met vrienden, sport en kunst. In de ene wereld is iedereen getalenteerd, maar verliest eerlijkheid het van eerzucht. In de andere wereld spelen spierbundels stiekem met treintjes en zingen sensuele dames kinderliedjes.

Bad people in guanTanamoaccademia TeaTrale di roma, advanced programme, Third year, rome, iTaly

After September 11 a wealth of sickening pictures popped up every-where of abused prisoners of war. The alleged terrorists were blind-folded and portrayed without any clothes on. Covered in blood or forced into having sexual intercourse they were displayed as hun-ting trophies. It turned out that humiliation and torture were the order of the day. The world was in shock and the question that kept cropping up was: WHY? Bad People in guantanamo is dedicated to all victims of torture in combat situations, anywhere in the world.

Na 11 september doken overal misselijkmakende foto’s op van misbruikte oorlogsgevangenen. De ver-meende terroristen werden geblinddoekt en naakt afgebeeld. Bebloed of gedwongen tot seksueel verkeer werden ze getoond als jachttrofeeën. Vernederingen en martelingen bleken aan de orde van de dag. De wereld was geschokt en de vraag die rond bleef zingen was: WAAROM? Bad People in Guantanamo wordt opgedragen aan alle slachtoffers van martelingen in oorlogssitu-aties, waar dan ook ter wereld.

Eighties music is stored in our collective memory. In the highly physical games without frontiers, the HKu students take us along on a trip to nostalgia. Flanked by hits from the eighties a hilarious and sentimental performance unfolds about the romance and aimless-ness of being young. The seven performers play, identify with their pop heroes, and explore their own limitations.

Geflan-keerd door hits uit ‘the eighties’ ontvouwt er zich een humoristische en sentimentele voorstelling over de romantiek en de doelloosheid van de jeugd. De zeven spelen, identificeren zich met hun pophelden en zoeken hun eigen grenzen op.

On the threshold of their professional careers, these russian stu-dents present a new interpretation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Trying to find parallels with their personal lives they immerse themselves in a barren world where love is inextricably bound up with lies. A story about unsolvable clashes, broken characters and wavering support. A tale about humanity and about the shock of being introduced to adult life.

Op de vooravond van hun professionele leven brengen deze Rus-sische studenten een nieuwe interpretatie van Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Ze zoeken parallellen in hun persoonlijke levens en duiken in een barre wereld waarin liefde en leugens onlosmake-lijk met elkaar verbonden zijn. Een verhaal over onoplosbare botsingen, gebroken personages en wankelend vertrouwen. Een verhaal over menselijkheid en over de schokkende kennismaking met het volwassen leven.

The lonely venitsjka is on a train travelling from moscow to Petushki to meet his red-haired girlfriend there. Before this he roamed across moscow, back to front, both sober and heavily under the influence. We follow him not only on his train journey, but on his inner trip as well. This is where he keeps his plea for insecurity and against the enthusiasts, the acts of glory and unflinching willpower.

De eenzame Venitsjka reist per trein van Moskou naar Petoesjki om daar zijn roodharige vriendin te treffen. Hij heeft eerder heel Moskou doorkruist. Van voren naar achter, nuchter en sterk on-der invloed. We volgen hem niet alleen op zijn treinreis, maar ook op zijn innerlijke trip. Daar bevindt zich een pleidooi voor de onzekerheid en tegen de enthousiastelingen, de grootse daden en de vastberaden wilskracht.

BloedBadhogeschool voor de KunsTen uTrechT, acTeursopleiding, FourTh year, uTrechT, The neTherlands

“I am not hurt. Not damaged.” A woman locks herself in her bath-room. It is a way to try and escape her inescapable fate. Bloedbad (Bloodbath) was based on Om te beginnen een vrouw (In the begin-ning there was a woman) by Anne vegter, a play about Noah’s ficti-onal daughter. Eleni Achilleos has moulded the text into a discom-forting performance that confronts us with fear, sex, abuse, and death.

“Ik ben niet gewond. Niet beschadigd.” Een vrouw sluit zich op in haar badkamer. Zo probeert ze te ontkomen aan haar onver-mijdelijke lot. Bloedbad is geïnspireerd op Om te beginnen een vrouw van Anne Vegter over de fictieve dochter van Noach. Eleni Achilleos giet de theatertekst in een ontregelende voorstelling die ons confronteert met angst, seks, misbruik en de dood.

The curtain falls, the stage is empty. All it needs now is a clean-up. For her graduation performance Laura de vries has created the character Najomie. A cleaning woman whose heart-warming monologue will take you along into a hidden world. Her world. A world quivering with life. Taking a good few poetic detours, Najomie is a performance that tiptoes towards its goal and will have you listen with bated breath.

Het doek valt, het toneel is leeg. Er moet alleen nog gepoetst worden. Voor haar af-studeervoorstelling creëerde Laura de Vries het personage Najomie. Deze poets-vrouw neemt je met een hartverwarmen-de monoloog mee naar een verborgen wereld. Haar wereld. Een wereld waarin het leven trilt. Najomie is een voorstelling die, met de nodige poëtische omwegen, op kousenvoeten op haar doel afgaat en je ademloos doet luisteren.

There are more speechwriters working at the White House than policy makers. What does this mean? And what does it mean that we are living in a world where reality is over-shadowed by the media? In 2007 rebekka de Wit made a reality report on her journey to madagascar. Her experiences prompted so many questions that she decided to de-vote three monologues to them. These have now been merged to form one funny and moving piece about the mediatisation of our world.

In het Witte Huis werken meer speech-makers dan beleidsmakers. Wat betekent dat? En wat betekent het dat we in een wereld leven waarin media de werkelijk-heid overschaduwen? Rebekka de Wit maakte in 2007 een reality reportage van haar reis naar Madagaskar. Haar ervarin-gen riepen zoveel vragen op, dat ze be-sloot er drie monologen aan te wijden. Deze zijn nu samengesmeed tot één grap-pig en ontroerend stuk over de mediatise-ring van onze wereld.

The multi-talented Nina Willems is graduating from the Theatrical Performance programme this year with her intimate solo Schuw. Schuw (Shy) captures the fear, the rage, the despair, and the silence. But also… love. Schuw is an appeal, a cry from the heart, to fear nothing. Not even NOTHINgNESS itself.

Multitalent Nina Willems studeert dit jaar af aan de Opleiding tot Theatraal Performer met haar intieme solo Schuw. Schuw vat de angst, de woede, de wanhoop, de stilte. Maar… ook de liefde. Schuw is een oproep, een hartenkreet, om niets te schuwen. Zelfs het NIETS niet.

In 1984, twenty people who were facing death (either because of a death penalty or because of terminal cancer) were asked if they were happy with the life they had lived. They all answered: ‘no’. One man watches too many movies, completely secluding himself, and creates a new character: Bobby Baxter! His answer when asked if he is happy with his life is ‘no’ as well. But he does not see this as any-thing negative.

Aan twintig mensen die de dood in de ogen keken (door de dood-straf of door terminale kanker) werd in 1984 gevraagd of ze blij waren met hun geleefde leven. Allen antwoordden: ‘nee’. Een man kijkt teveel films, sluit zich volledig af en creëert een nieuw personage: Bobby Baxter! Op de vraag of hij tevreden is met zijn leven is het antwoord eveneens ‘nee’. Maar hij beschouwt dat niet als iets negatiefs.

An individual, lost in the world, is letting her imagination run free. She creates a cosmos filled with bizarre characters and unusual machines. The stage is peopled, for instance, by things such as the boat head and the torso suit. Her own rules and made-up rituals offer her life a structure that she desperately clings to. On the divi-ding line between visual art and drama Käppkkra tells the story of the little fears.

Perhaps it would be best if we sit down. Let’s sweep everything under the carpet and not worry about the reasons why we have gathered here. Let’s just focus on being strong for each other, even though everything here reminds you of the moment when nothing is the same anymore. Emotions are buried, but right beneath the surface, the beast is hiding.

Misschien is het beter als je even gaat zitten. Laten we alles onder het tapijt vegen en ons niet druk maken om de reden van ons samenzijn. Laten we ons er vooral op richten ons goed te houden voor elkaar, ook al doet alles je denken aan dat moment waarop niets meer hetzelfde is. Emoties worden begraven, maar vlak onder de beheersing schuilt het beest.

gaanIf there is no point to our existence, then why don’t we kill ourselves immediately? A fatal ending awaits us all and we can be seized by a sudden realisation of our own mortality. Our minds are capable of exploring the limits of death in every detail, but our bodies shrink from destruction. A performance about the absurdity of life, melan-choly, and hope.

Als ons bestaan zinloos is, waarom doden we onszelf dan niet direct? Een fataal einde wacht ons allemaal en het bewustzijn van sterfelijkheid kan ons opeens bij de keel grijpen.

Every day, somewhere in the universe, a dense star reaches the end of its life. It can no longer support its own weight and implodes. The thing that remains is a place where gravity is so enormous that not even light is able to escape from it. It is the birth of a black hole. Black holes distort all our intuitive notions of space and time, and this is what makes them so fascinating. They are improbable enigmas.

Iedere dag ziet er ergens in het heelal een zware ster zijn levens-einde. Hij kan zijn gewicht niet meer dragen en implodeert. Wat overblijft is een plek waar de zwaartekracht zo oneindig groot is, dat er zelfs geen licht uit kan ontsnappen. Een zwart gat is geboren. Zwarte gaten verwringen al onze intuïties over ruim-te en tijd en dat maakt ze zo fascinerend. Ze zijn een onwaar-schijnlijk raadsel.

In the godforsaken town of Leenane unemployment reigns, nobody ever sets a foot inside the church, and domestic murders are the order of the day. Nuns are scoffed and dog’s ears are never quite safe from the scissors. Cruelty masks the villagers’ vulnerability. We meet two embittered brothers, a young and optimistic priest, and a girl who pursues a forbidden love. A black satire on shared solitude.

In het godverlaten dorp Leenane heerst werkloosheid, zet nie-mand een voet in de kerk en zijn moorden in huiselijke kring aan de orde van de dag. Nonnen worden beschimpt en hondenoren zijn niet veilig voor de schaar. Wreedheid maskeert de kwets-baarheid van de dorpsbewoners. We maken kennis met twee ver-bitterde broers, een jonge, optimistische priester en een meisje dat de verboden liefde najaagt. Een donkere satire over samen eenzaam zijn.

“I am scared, but not of their cries or orders - I scare myself.” medea lives on the fringes of society. Hunted down, beaten, despised, and betrayed by her great love Jason, who has run off to marry someone else. But medea does not run; she prepares for a showdown. Which will have far-reaching consequences. Amid the rubble of the Second World War Anouilh wrote his version of medea, which deals with the responsibilities of society and of the individual.

“Ik ben bang, maar niet voor hun kreten of bevelen - voor me-zelf.” Medea leeft aan de rand van de maatschappij. Opgejaagd, verslagen, veracht en verraden door haar grote liefde Jason, die met een ander trouwt. Maar Medea vlucht niet, zij gaat de con-frontatie aan. Met verstrekkende gevolgen. Op de puinhopen van de Tweede Wereldoorlog schreef Anouilh zijn versie van Medea over de verantwoordelijkheden van samenleving en individu. direcTor: Ilmer rozendaal TexT: Jean Anouilh TranslaTor: Johan van der Woude perFormers: Bram van der Kelen, Naomi velis sariou, Joren Seldeslachts coach: Christophe Aussems scenographer: Karl Philips scenography coach: geert Peymen Technician: Kishan Singh producers: De Queeste and Toneelacademie maastricht language: Dutch, English surtitles

She talks, and talks, and talks, hoping that Willie will hear her: “Oh no doubt you are dead, like the others, no doubt you have died, or gone away and left me, like the others, it doesn’t matter, you are there.” A terrifying and desperate monologue in a piece that is as enigmatic as it is spellbinding.

In een onbestemde en beklemmende ruimte kletst Winnie voor zich uit.

In Iran an average of twenty-seven students per year take their own lives. A writer is writing his final story. Through a series of flashbacks we follow three characters who have come together to die. What has brought them to this point?

In Europa overlijden jaarlijks meer mensen aan zelfdoding dan aan auto-ongelukken. Zelfmoord is doodsoorzaak nummer acht in de Verenigde Staten. In Japan kan je je online aanmelden voor een zelfmoordclub. In Iran benemen gemiddeld zevenentwintig studenten per jaar zich van het leven. Een schrijver schrijft zijn laatste verhaal.

And they do with great verve! The evening starts with a short film that will give you a look behind the scenes at the dance academy. And then it is time for some truly ravishing dance.

Ook dit jaar brengt de Rotterdamse Dans-academie de nieuwe lichting toptalenten naar ITs. Zeven stukken van zeven zeer uit-eenlopende choreografen dagen de jonge dansers uit het beste van zichzelf te laten zien. En dat doen ze met verve! De avond begint met een korte film die een kijkje biedt in de keuken van de dansacademie. Daarna is het tijd voor oogverblindende dans. choreographers: regina van Berkel, Club guy & roni, Ederson rodrigues xavier, Iker Arrue & Laura vilar, Nacho Duato, Bruno Lis-topad and Jérôme meyer & Isabelle Chaffaud dancers: derdejaars studenten Film co-

“In the current climate of not knowing where the money might be coming from it would be tempting to make a statement relating to art funding. I am not going to.Instead, I would like to enjoy the remai-ning period of the Kunstenplan, celebra-ting what we have now, celebrating the next generation of performing artists. Besi-des, the value of dance cannot be ex-plained by any currency - it has its own intrinsic value. In the words of roger Scru-ton, in fact a conservative philosopher:

“Beauty can be consoling, disturbing, sacred, profane. It can be exhi-larating, appealing, inspiring, chilling. It can affect us in an unlimited variety of ways, yet it is never viewed with indifference: beauty de-mands to be noticed.” For ‘beauty’ read ‘dance’.

Of course, it is almost impossible not to be concerned with the im-pending changes. Things cannot go on as usual and changes will have to be made. If there is less money to spend, we will have to make clever, more disciplined choices without sacrificing standards. Fortunately there is an appreciative audience out there and I am grateful to live in a country where Art is still seen as a fundamental and necessary part of life.”

The Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance (SEAD) represents experimental dance; the Dance Academy in Tilburg represents craftsmanship and creativity. The two have joined forces for this year’s festival and will be sharing the stage. Their collaboration has resulted in a varied programme containing jazz, urban dance, modern dance theatre and experimental dance, all taking the students’ individual life experiences as a starting point. A better synergy would be hard to imagine!

De Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance (SEAD) staat voor experimentele dans, de Dansacademie in Tilburg staat voor ambacht en creatie. Zij slaan dit jaar de handen ineen en delen het podium. Het resultaat is een afwisselend programma met jazz, urban dans, modern danstheater en experimentele dans waarbij de indivi-duele ervaringswerelden van de studenten als uitgangspunt zijn genomen. Een mooi-ere synergie is bijna niet denkbaar!

Sun Wukong, an important character from Chinese mythology, developed from a mor-tal to King of the Apes, to an arrogant and powerful demon, to ultimately receive the status of a Buddha. This great figure sneaks up on boys in their sleep and makes them dream of power and courage. They revere him. But when one of them steps into his shoes and reveals himself to be a new hero, it turns out that grief and lone-liness are always just around the corner.

Sun Wukong, een belangrijk figuur in de Chinese mythologie, ontwikkelde zich van sterveling, tot Apenkoning, tot arrogante en machtige demon om ten-slotte de status van Boeddha te verkrijgen. Deze grootheid besluipt jongens in hun slaap, laat hen dromen van macht en moed. Ze vereren hem. Maar als er één in zijn huid kruipt en zich ontpopt tot een nieuwe held, blijken verdriet en eenzaam-heid nooit ver weg te zijn.

In landscapes, towns, villages, in streets and squares, inside houses, throughout the days, months, years, and centuries, always and every where, there are tragedies, there is this tragedy. And it starts with love. Ten students have taken on the greek tragedy medea by Euripides. Based on the students’ different disciplines each relates to this timeless story, which results in an interdisciplinary music theatre performance full of music, visual art and poetry.

In landschappen, in steden, in dorpen, op pleinen, in hui-zen, op dagen, in maanden, in jaren, door eeuwen. Overal en altijd vind je tragedies, vind je deze tragedie. En het begint met liefde. Tien studenten storten zich op de Griekse tragedie Medea van Euripides. Vanuit ieders discipline verhouden zij zich tot dit tijdloze verhaal. Het resultaat is een interdisciplinaire muziek-theatervoorstelling vol muziek, spel, beeldende kunst en poëzie.

deBaTe: music TheaTreITs, in collaboration with Operatie muziektheater (a cooperation of TIN, FPK and mCN) and De Theaterschool, is organising a debate on the future of European music theatre students.

musicals and innovative music theatre are the fastest-growing genres within the performing arts. They are accessible and well-loved be-cause of their mix of different disciplines, which gives them a huge potential audience as well as the opportunity to be economically via-ble. But the domain of musicals and music theatre performances is also broad and highly varied. Each category has its own content ma-terial, its own artistic and professional qualifications and accompan-ying forms of education. But there is a great discrepancy both among the different schools and between the schools and the professional field of subsidisers, presenters and journalists. ITs is triggering the de-bate with participants such as marc van Warmerdam (Orkater), ruut Weissman (artistic director of the Amsterdam Toneelschool&Klein-kunstacademie) and robin de Levita (music theatre producer) to find out how these discrepancies affect the music theatre student’s career options, how the European field is actually developing, and whether there are any chances of finding new opportunities in the

vacuum between the musical and the innovative music theatre performance.

ITs organiseert in samenwerking met Operatie Muziektheater (een samenwerking van TIN, FPK en MCN) en De Theaterschool een ge-sprek over de toekomst van de Europese muziektheaterstudent.

Musical en innovatief muziektheater is het snelst groeiende genre binnen de podiumkunsten. Het is toegankelijk en geliefd door zijn vermenging van disciplines, heeft daardoor een enorm potentieel bereik én de mogelijkheid economisch rendabel te zijn. Maar het musical- en muziektheaterlandschap is ook breed en veelkleurig. Iedere categorie heeft zijn eigen inhoudelijke, artistieke en vak-matige kwalificaties en bijbehorende opleidingen. Er is echter grote discrepantie tussen zowel de opleidingen onderling als de opleidingen en het professionele veld van subsidiënten, program-meurs en de journalistiek. ITs gaat het gesprek aan met o.a. Marc van Warmerdam (Orkater), Ruut Weissman (artistiek leider Am-sterdamse Toneelschool&Kleinkunstacademie) en Robin de Levita (muziektheaterproducent) om te zien hoe deze discrepantie de carrièremogelijkheden van de muziektheaterstudent beïnvloed, hoe het Europese veld zich daadwerkelijk aan het ontwikkelen is en of er kansen liggen voor nieuwe mogelijkheden in het vacuüm tussen musical en innovatief muziektheater.

After graduating at ITs with Bos Vermist I went on to perform at festivals for young artists. And so the woods went missing in Maastricht, Utrecht and Groningen. The encounters I had with other young artists were an inspiration; in the end, we are all in the same boat. How wonderful that there is a place for us to start rowing.

You can make an online donation via the website www.crowdfundingfacilitities.com With your help we can offer young graduates in the performing arts a stage to present themselves to public, programmers and press.

Help ITs Festival Amsterdam haar missie te vervullen! We gaan onzekere tijden tegemoet in de culturele wereld. De Nederlandse overheid heeft grote bezuinigingen aangekondigd die ons aan-zetten om na te denken over nieuwe manieren om het festival te financieren. Via Crowdfunding willen we graag onze achterban aanspreken, en via een online platform willen we het extra mak-kelijk maken om hier gehoor aan te geven. Je kunt een online donatie doen via de website www.crowdfundingfacilities.com Met jouw hulp kunnen we jonge afstuderende podiumkunste-naars een podium blijven bieden om zichzelf te presenteren aan publiek, programmeurs en pers.

Our mission at ITs Festival Amsterdam is to bridge the gap bet-ween art education and a professional career. Since 1987 it has been the place where hundreds of young theatre makers and ta-lented young dancers, both from the Netherlands and abroad, have presented themselves to the public, to presenters, and the press. We also offer an extensive fringe programme each year con-sisting of debates, lectures, workshops, talks and more. With this package, ITs offers young artists inspiration, valuable contacts, and quite often, a first concrete step towards employment.

Support ITs and become our friend now! Your contribution will help us to continue to fulfil our mission in the future.
