Experiments in Circus
Lab:time is Circus Space’s new flagship programme for innovation and experimentation in the Circus Arts funded by The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. Through Lab:time individual artists and companies are able to secure rehearsal and R&D time in the Creation Studio at Circus Space as well as small but significant amounts of seed funding to support the first stages of exploration.
Lab:time has been created to support early stage, grass roots R&D. By offering artists the means to explore their ideas at the very beginning of the creative process it is our aim to generate a critical mass of creative development that will, over time, generate an increase in the quality and quantity of new circus-based performance across the UK.
The deadline for Lab:time applications for work taking place January - March 2013 is Friday 5 October 2012.
