”We had a good amount of high-quality applicants in different stages of their careers for the open call, and we are happy to see so many professionals interested in the fantastic opportunities Circusstad has to offer. I\u2019m looking forward to meeting everyone and hearing more about their practices and to see how they connect with the circus scene in the Netherlands. The project is a wonderful collaboration between our institute and our fellow institute in the UK and Ireland as well as Circus and Dance Finland, and will hopefully sow seeds for future partnerships and creative adventures,” says Malin Bergstr\u00f6m, who will also be attending the trip to connect with circus professionals from Finland and the Benelux region.<\/p>\n
