PRICES
Participation fee with showing is 900,- per person.
Participation fee without showing is 1500,- per person.
Included in the participation fee are free camping, food, and rehearsal space.
SHOWING
On the last day, there will be an open showing for participants and external audiences. A schedule will be set up for all the showings, with short breaks in between, so that all participants can see everything and have time to prepare for their showing. If you/your group shows what you have been working on, the participation fee is lower because this is a contribution to cultural diversity at the camp and in the local community.
Below are some pictures (all photos: Geir Daasvatn) from the three different groups that had showings in 2024.
– Fast racers – “Frontal lobe in development”
– Kristin og Iselin – “Hole”
– Movement Theatre Company – “Movement and Nature”
