From the 2nd<\/sup> April, the application period for the XX Actor International Laboratory, which will take place from the 16th<\/sup> October 2018 to the 8th<\/sup> April 2019, is open.<\/p>\n TNT, The International Centre of Investigative Theatre of Seville has become the role model for the investigative theatre in Spain. In 2003, it was included in the program called \u201cTheatrical Laboratories as Cultural Innovators\u201d by the EU, which contains the most important European centers. From that time, it has been part of four different programs at the EU (with 30 more centers from 15 different countries).<\/p>\n Conscious about the complexity to find their place in the artistic world, the TNT Laboratory started in 2005 with the solid will of helping young actors during the beginning of their careers. To get there, more than a hundred teachers and educators from every corner of the world have taken part of this laboratory. In each edition, 160 actors have participated, not only Spanish, but also actors from other countries, becoming a national and European example.<\/p>\n [\/spb_text_block] [spb_toggle title=”Read more” open=”false” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]<\/p>\n From these laboratories, a cast for Atalaya and TNT emerged, but also for many more of the most renowned Spanish companies, such as Fura, Comediants, Ur, Animalario, La Cuadra, Pentaci\u00f3n or Kulunka, apart from productions of some of the most important national and autonomous dramatic centers.<\/p>\n The cast of the 30 shows that Atalaya and TNT have produced since 1995 come from the Laboratory: a total of 80 actresses and actors, exactly the half of the participants from the different editions. They have toured around more than 30 countries from 5 continents and got many Andalusian, national and international awards. Atalaya\u2019s next show, \u201cKing Lear\u201d, includes three actors from the last three laboratories, with other six from the steady team.<\/p>\n The team of the XX Laboratory is formed by a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 14 actresses and actors who could take to scene a final show (depending on level), just like what happened with the current edition of the Laboratory and the show \u201cThe Public\u201d, from Federico Garc\u00eda Lorca, and based on Atalaya\u2019s original show, or in past editions with shows such as \u201cDivine Words\u201d, from Valle-Incl\u00e1n.<\/p>\n Some of the advantage that belonging to this project offers are, not only the artistic repercussion, but also the possibility to assist every show that takes place at the TNT Center (\u201cCelestina\u201d, \u201cMarat\/Sade\u201d, \u201cSo Let Five Years Pass\u201d and \u201cKing Lear\u201d), the Investigative Theatre International Exhibition (MITIN in Spanish) and the New Theatrical Researchers Contest (CENIT), with renowned foreigner shows (and which includes meetings with their line-ups).<\/p>\n It also stands out the encounters made with important professionals from the Spanish scene, as we did in past editions with Jos\u00e9 Luis G\u00f3mez, Blanca Portillo, Leo Bassi, Alberto San Juan or Laila Ripoll, among others, just as with international educators.<\/p>\n A special mention goes to Eugenio Barba\u2019s visit, one of the biggest masters and transformer of contemporary theatre who will attend these events in company of Julia Varley, actress at Odin Teatret. They both will assist the celebration of Atalaya\u2019s 35th<\/sup> anniversary and The International Centre of Investigative Theatre TNT 10th<\/sup> anniversary.<\/p>\n The educational team at Atalaya\/TNT is made by 12 people, including its director, Ricardo Iniesta. The Laboratory includes more than 500 school hours used by the team to work in different facets, very important to the scene, such as physical training, scenic movement, voice-sing and rhythm, work in texts about universal poetic theatre, scenic creation: score, composition, scenic proposals, etc.<\/p>\n Likewise, theatre traditions from around the world will be addressed: Asian, such as Kathakali, Butoh, Noh, Pekin Opera; European such as Meyerhold Biomechanic, Art Comedy, Flamenco, Isabelino Theatre, Brechtiano Theatre, Artaud\u2019s Cruelty Theatre, Grotowski Poor Theatre, Eugenio Barba\u2019s Anthropologic Theatre and Odin Teatret; African traditions such as Sacroritual Theatre or Zul\u00fa Singing; Voice traditions such as Brechtiano Cabaret\u2026<\/p>\n The students of this new edition will enjoy the facilities at The International Centre of Investigative Theatre TNT, which has a theatre with a space for 300 people, a room for 110 people, garden, different classrooms, video library, library, dressing rooms, apartments, hall, counter, storehouse, studio, office, toilets and closets.<\/p>\n Students will also be able to use visual material from TNT Center, which database includes a high number of Spanish and international Investigative Theatre shows, workshops from past editions and creations from the cast who have made possible the 40 shows of Atalaya and TNT.<\/p>\n To choose the participants of this edition of the Laboratory, it will take place an Experimental Workshop. Here, two groups of 20 selected students will become aware of the work to develop. After the workshop, the educators will pick the participants for the XX Laboratory of TNT. The workshop will take place the second week of October, five hours daily during five days.<\/p>\n The students will have free use, apart from the educational facilities of the center \u2013classrooms, video library and library-, the first floor, specially made for their use: rooms, rest area, kitchen, roof, laundry room\u2026<\/p>\n The experimental workshop price will be 95\u20ac, with a special promotion for those who make the pre-enrollment and payment before the 1st<\/sup> August. In that case, the price of the experimental workshop will be 75\u20ac.<\/p>\n The total price for the XX Laboratory will be 990\u20ac, which need to be paid in two payments of 495\u20ac, before the start of the Laboratory and before the 10th<\/sup> January.<\/p>\n The deadline to pre-enroll to the experimental workshop is the 20th<\/sup> September (with the pre-enrollment sheet, picture and CV included). Those who have pre-enrolled will have to attend an on-site test on the last week of September \u2013exact date still to be confirmed-.<\/p>\n For this workshop (which will take place on the first half of October), it is necessary to present a monologue of poetic theatre (such as a Greek tragedy, a Shakespeare\u2019s play or Lorca\u2019s or another author to consult) with a length of 2-4 minutes, a song without lyrics (like a lullaby), and a short choreography. It is also necessary to wear comfortable clothes for physical work. If you don\u2019t live in Seville, you can film yourself and send the material on a DVD, digital file or Internet (Vimeo or similar) over TNT before the 25th<\/sup> September.<\/p>\n The International Centre of Investigative Theatre TNT, where the Laboratory will take place, is made by: a theatre with a space for 300 people, a room for 110 people, garden, different classrooms, video library, library, dressing rooms, apartments, hall, counter, storehouse, studio, office, toilets and closets.<\/p>\n
