As a circus performer, how do I manage to go on tour with my own work? How do I sell a finished piece in Switzerland? How do I build relationships with organizers? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These questions are the focus of the next Circ-Exchange, which will take place during the ZirQus festival. Luisa Schmitz and Caro Wuttke will host the Circ-Exchange and lead through the exchange and Simon Fleury (Diffusion for Compagnies in the free scene and head of PREMIO office) will talk about their experiences in touring and diffusion in a short input. Afterwards, there will be an opportunity to ask questions and discuss your own experiences in diffusion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Circ-Exchange takes place as part of the Festival ZirQus<\/a> and after the Circ-Exchange you can enjoy the rest of the festival Sunday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
