Performance Opportunity: On Cue - Femme Fest Call for Proposals
March 6-9, 2023 in Regina; Regina Based Artists Can Appy; Deadline to apply is Dec 31, 2023
Deadline: December 31, 2023
Inspired by International Women’s Day, March 8, 2024, On Cue Performance Hub will be hosting Regina’s first Winter Femme Fest March 6-9, 2023. The festival will spotlight and celebrate female-identifying and gender-diverse performing artists. Artists will be encouraged to profile issues that are critical to the future of women in Canada and/or internationally but work which evolves out of diverse experiences of winter in Regina or elsewhere or other topics will be welcome contributions to what is intended to be a culturally inclusive four-day event.
Participation in this festival is open to artists who identify as female or non-binary. They may be working individually or in groups from a broad range of cultural perspectives and in any performative field (such as dance, film, music, theatre, spoken word poetry, stand-up comedy and storytelling). In keeping with On Cue Performance Hub’s mandate to create space on Regina stages for emerging and historically underserved artists, proposals from artists who self-identify as Indigenous, racialized, newcomers, Deaf or disabled are encouraged. Artists must explicitly identify in this application. Applications which pair an emerging artist with a more senior artist are also encouraged.
Proposals should be for a performance of 20-30 minutes and need not be new work. All artists will be compensated at a professional rate appropriate to their performative disciplines. Proposals will be received up to midnight on December 31, 2023. For queries and further information, contact Landon Walliser, Creative Administrator at admin@oncueregina.ca. On Cue will contact successful artists by January 8, 2024.
