Plat(e)form(e): visitors programme performing arts @Kunstenfestivaldesarts

By presenting performances, works in progress and pitches by artists, Plat(e)form(e) acts as a temporary space for mutual learning, and a place to reflect on what it means to create today. Also within this framework, SACD will host an open seminar discussing writing in the field of documentary theatre.
