Popelei Theatre wants to hear more female stories. They are opening a commission for performance-based work with narratives focused around women.

This opportunity is suitable for ideas and projects at the beginning of their creative life. They want to hear from any artists or collectives in need of collaborative artistic support and initial financial backing to help you move things forward.

Deadline
