'BY' THE OTHER

The Et Alia Theater Lab, a program that supports theater creators in the development of their work-in-progress projects.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Et Alia Theater Lab Panelists: Ana Moioli, Giorgia Valenti, Maria Müller, and Luísa Galatti.

Each year, we select three projects for a two-month workshop. During this time, the chosen projects receive expert guidance from a guest theater professional and are brought to life by skilled actors. We continuously seek innovative works for our mainstage show, and all submissions to the Et Alia Theater Lab are considered for a full production.

As a company that celebrates the voices of international women+ in NYC, our selection process will prioritize applicants who self-identify as (not necessarily both simultaneously):

         - women+: cis and trans women, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming individuals, acknowledging all identities historically marginalized in teatro and beyond;

         - foreign: anyone whose cultural background is ‘othered’ by the default local structures, with a special interest in the ones who grew up abroad and experienced cultural shocks first-hand.
