Pro Helvetia is launching a call for music theatre practitioners wishing to attend the international network meeting at the «Operadagen Rotterdam».

The «Operadagen Rotterdam» have become established as an international platform in the music theatre sector. From 18 to 27 May 2018, this Festival will present new forms of contemporary music theatre, along with a fringe programme featuring numerous productions at unexpected venues in the city of Rotterdam.

«Opera Europa» is the leading service organisation for professional opera companies and opera festivals throughout Europe. From 22 to 24 May 2018, as part of the «Operadagen Rotterdam», it will be organising a conference with network meetings, papers and discussions. On 24 May 2018, the network meeting «Operatie Muziektheater» (Operation Music Theatre, OMT) will also take place, bringing together international experts and music theatre practitioners. The meeting will include pitches (brief presentations of productions) and «speed dates» with event organisers and festival curators. There will be a special Swiss focus at «Operatie Muziektheater», which will offer selected Swiss productions the opportunity to present themselves before an international specialist audience.
