#TYA #youngaudiences #IPAY #digital #keynote #NeverGrowUp #theatre #dance #musicFrom 4-31 January 2021, IPAY Showcase in Place 3: Superbloom brings shows for young people from all over the world to your screen. After live performances by Netherlands-based theatre and dance companies at IPAY Showcase in 2019 and 2020, the orange streak continues with a virtual keynote by science journalist Mark Mieras on 13 January 2021.
IPAY Showcase is a platform for theatre companies from all over the world that cater to young audiences. After having presented the Official Selection and performing arts for young audiences created by Black, Indigenous, People of Color, LGBTQIA+ folks, and the Disabled Community, the third and last part of Showcase in Place 2021 is themed Superbloom. This theme focuses on innovation, new creation, digital and online offerings and any other new ideas coming out of this COVID world.
What happens in young people's brains when they encounter and engage with art? How can art — and performing arts for young audiences in particular — make a difference in academic achievement, success in life, and happiness?
