Greetings from the organizers of the 14th World Festival of Children's Theatre,
You are invited to participate in the upcoming "Play! A Symposium", June 4 – 6, 2016 in Stratford, Ontario, Canada. This two day event will effectively begin the International Amateur Theatre Association’s (AITA/IATA) 14th World Festival of Children’s Theatre, to be held for the first time in North America in scenic Stratford, Ontario, from June 5 – 14, 2016. Organizers expect "Play! A Symposium" to be a dynamic and thought provoking launch for the overall Festival. The Festival Website is here: http://www.worldfestivalofchildrenstheatre.com/
To this end, an initial Call for Proposals is here:
http://www.aitaiata.org/gil/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Call-for-Proposals-EN.pdf.
As it outlines, organizers are interested in any form of presentation to do with "Play!" While organizers will of course accept academic proposals, they are also eager to entertain other forms of presentations, as they believe the theme of "Play!" is evocative, exciting and rich in possibilities. The deadline for proposals to be received is May 1st, 2015.
They ask that you send this invitation on to others whom you feel might be interested, and they look forward to hearing back from you.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Pat Quigley and Glenys McQueen-Fuentes, symposium Co-Chairs at playsymposium@gmail.com
