Om Evenemanget
Update: This event is going ahead for Swedish participants. Event is not cancelled.
Baltic Nordic Circus Network (BNCN) produce rigging master class capacity building courses for technical professionals working in theatres and festivals in the Nordic and Baltic countries wanting to gain expertise and qualification in circus rigging.
These masterclasses go through the fundamental and specific information needed in order to safely present a circus performance with its various disciplines, as well as discusses and highlights the various ambiguities or difficulties presented to festivals and performance venues when presenting circus work in relation to national and international legislation of safety standards and practises in 2020. The aim is for the participants to feel confident to read technical specifications of circus companies and subsequently received companies at their venue feeling confident that they possess or know where to acquire the expertise, knowledge and capacity needed to support presentation.
There are two masterclasses in rigging this spring as part of the Rigorous Practise initative. This is the registration for the first which takes place in Stockholm in April and the Second is in Riga at the beginning of May. The content is the same, but the design of the courses slightly different with Stockholm happening as a more fast track technical 2 days course and in Riga 3 days we include a greater level of discussion and practical participation to allow different modes of learning.
All professionals working as technical staff in performing arts in the Baltic and Nordic countries are elegible to register, apart from those who work in circus venues. This masterclass is designed to support technical staff who work in venues/festivals who do not already programme circus arts to have the opportunity to build their capacity and acquire this knowledge. For this reason the course is free of charge.
The course is run by Fredrik Deijfen, Head Rigger at Cirkus Cirkör, Stockholm, Sweden.
