- ZOOM ON JEUNES TALENTS CIRQUE EUROPE -
"Zoom sur Jeunes Talents Cirque Europe" was held in Paris from September 29th to October 16th 2011, at the Académie Fratellini, the Atelier du Plateau and the Village de Cirque (Coopérative De Rue De Cirque). About 1,200 people attended the event, which included some of the premieres of our 2009/2010 laureates (Subliminati Corporation, Babafish, Room 100, Desastronauts), performances by O Ultimo Momento, Cridacompany and Les Mains Sales, and two improvised evenings between European circus artists and musicians. Many thanks to you all!

- NEXT CALL FOR PROJECTS : APRIL 2012 -

Starting with its 6th edition in 2012, Jeunes Talents Cirque Europe will change its rhythm, becoming an annual event (from April to April) as way of adapting to the production calendar of the artistic groups.
The essential orientation and general structure of the operation are reaffirmed, and in particular the need to maintain the identification and assistance of new talent at the heart of its project.
Over the course of 2011, a series of meetings between all our European partners has been held, such as a programing of productions by laureates from previous editions, in Paris.
For 2012, JTCE will prepare a new application to the European Culture Programme, will organise two laboratories/ artistic encounters in Croatia and in Paris, and will organise an annual operation in partnership with its French and European network.
