17 Mar OPEN CALL UAT’s Next? II – Internship Stages for Students in Cluj-Napoca and Târgu Mureș” project
We are launching the registration call for students to participate in the internship program at Reactor, carried out as part of the “UAT’s Next? II – Internship Stages for Students in Cluj-Napoca and Târgu Mureș” project.
The call is open to BA and MA students with Romanian citizenship specializing in Acting, Directing, Playwriting, Theatre Studies-Cultural Management, and Scenography, from both FTF and UAT, who wish to conduct their internships as part of an artistic residency at Reactor.
Through this program, we offer a framework to conceive an original theater performance using various creative methods and to develop the first 15 minutes of that performance.
We will form 7 mixed teams composed of students from Acting, Directing, Playwriting, Scenography, and Management, from both UAT and FTF, Romanian and Hungarian sections.
The teams will benefit from mentorship and both theoretical and practical guidance provided by 7 internship tutors, artists collaborating with the Reactor space, with expertise in various fields:
Ovidiu Cioclov, playwright
Raul Coldea, director and playwright
Petro Ionescu, director and playwright
Oana Mardare, actress
Dragoș Mușoiu, director
Mihai Păcurar, director and scenographer
Tavi Voina, actor
At the end of the traineeship, one of the teams will receive a prize of 15 000 lei to finalize the show started in co-production with Reactor and UAT.
