Característica principal de la medida:

Following a successful run of the Theatre Arts Internship Programme, the NIFCA Performing Arts Ensemble was launched in 2016. The programme targets performing arts awardees from the National Independence Festival of the Creative Arts. It includes training in various styles of theatre from conventional stage performance to site-specific work. The programme targets approximately 30 interns between the ages of 16 -30 years. Upon selection, all members will be contracted for a period of two years, at the end of which they will be appraised. Non-adherent members, and/or members wishing to leave, will be rotated out at the end of the two-year cycle to make way for new membership

The aim is to cultivate a body of regularly employed quality performers. As the NIFCA Performing Arts Ensemble develops a repertoire, performances will be available for hire. Apart from the developmental aspect of the programme, much of the Ensemble’s output will be marketable cultural products.

The guiding principle of the NIFCA Performing Arts Ensemble is to put performing artists together with teaching artists and arts managers to advance the quality of the performers’ work, and also to create a repertoire of developmental and performance events that can be applied in a variety of settings where semi-professional/professional performing arts is wanted. The Ensemble would therefore create a team of players groomed and ready for performance opportunities. Further, it is proposed that the NIFCA Performing Arts Ensemble is expected to function s as an income-generating performing repertory company, available for local and overseas work.
