OPEN CALL

SAFER SPACES
The Feminist Culture of Peace

THEATER - LIVE MUSIC - ON-SITE PERFORMANCES - VIDEO INSTALLATIONS - WORKSHOPS - SYMPOSIUM

The International Women's* Theater Festival (IF*TF) is an event to strengthen the position and perspectives of women* in contemporary theater. The aim is to promote the discussion of gender equality on a cultural level and to establish a further education programme for the professionalization of theater makers.

For eight years now, the IFTS festival has been creating important impulses for strengthening feminist projects at state and national level. Through our participation in “THE MAGDALENA PROJECT”, we are internationally networked and promote the visibility of this network in the independent theater scene in Germany.

For the diverse program, we are looking for artistic responses for a diverse audience. The focus is on this year's theme “Safer Spaces - The Feminist Culture of Peace”. Among other things, we want to explore the following topics together.
