– on audience engagement & diversity

On May 4 danish+ will be hosting a one-day seminar on audience engagement & diversity within performing arts for children and youth. The seminar is first and foremost aimed to the Danish performing arts industry but will surely be inspiring to everyone working in the industry.

Manchester is with its multi-cultural population way ahead, when it comes to working with diversity within the performing arts and culture in general.

Therefore, we have invited some of the leading actors from Manchester within this field to give an inspirational talk on their work with audience engagement, including how to involve and engage a far-reaching diverse audience. The seminar will have a specific focus on children and youth – a group who in large terms does not control their cultural habits themselves. The ambition is to gather inspiration and knowledge – that will inspire a new generation of children and youth theatre, that extends beyond average marketing initiatives.

The international guest speakers from Manchester is: suzie henderson | Head of Creative Development at Contact Theatre liz o’neill | Artistic Director at Z-arts julia turpin | Head of Engagement at Manchester International Festival

The seminar is organized by danish+ and APPLAUS in cooperation with the international keynote speakers. The seminar is supported by the City of Aarhus & The Danish Arts Foundation.
