The Cooking Fire Theatre Festival
June 23-27 2010
Call for submissions
The Seventh Annual Cooking Fire Theatre Festival is now accepting proposals. Click here to see the full application form The Cooking Fire Theatre Festival is an annual week-long festival celebrating theatre, food and public space that has been held in Toronto's Dufferin Grove Park each June since 2004. Delicious, affordable organic meals from the park's wood-fired community bake ovens are served alongside an evening of pay-what-you-can outdoor theatre by local, national and international artists.
The festival is an ideal venue for artist-run companies or independent artists creating original, ambitious outdoor theatre. In past years we have presented work which draws from various forms including physical theatre, puppetry, choral singing, live music, clown, street theatre and storytelling. We are primarily interested in supporting new site-specific pieces created for the festival itself, as well as those which are adapted and re-worked for this context.
Applications may correspond to one of the following categories:
A 15-20 minute piece which plays near the beginning of the evening to an all ages audience. A 30-40 minute piece - a narrative anchor to the evening. Here we invite thematically complex and thoughtful work geared towards adults. A 5-10 minute piece which closes the evening.
Please email completed submissions and relevant attachments to cookingfire@gmail.com
or send by mail to: The Cooking Fire Theatre Festival 9 Northern Place Toronto M6K 2V1
Deadline: December 1, 2009
We look forward to receiving your proposals, and will gladly answer further questions about the festival or the application process via email.
