True to its mandate of providing a safe space
for art practitioners to hone their skills and nurture their brands of
self-expression, the Cultural
Center of the Philippines (CCP) and the Center for International Trade
Expositions and Missions (CITEM) introduce ‘Navigate the Touring Circuit’, an
intensive capacity-building program seeking to enhance the tour planning skills
and business acumen of Filipino performing groups and companies.
The program aims
to provide selected performing arts organizations and companies with training
and mentorship on the technicalities of touring such as strategic planning,
events management, pitching, marketing, and more.
Integrating
plenary presentations, talks, breakout sessions, and face-to-face mentoring
across training schedules, Navigate the
Touring Circuit will be spanning key regions of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
The program will utilize both online and onsite platforms to ensure
accessibility and broader beneficiary & stakeholder engagement.
This special project aims to prepare Filipino
arts managers to engage with the international market by providing intensive
capacity training in event and production management, touring, and art market
strategies. Ultimately, this initiative seeks to foster the growth and
sustainability of the Filipino performing arts sector on the international
stage.
Navigate the Touring Circuit kicks off at the
UP Manila Little Theater on July 11, 2024. The opening program will be
moderated by Jill Samodio. There will be keynote presentations from CCP Vice
President and Artistic Director Dennis Marasigan, about Charting Alternative
Paths: The Future of Performance.
For the next leg,
the Navigate the Touring Circuit program goes to Clark on July 28-30, Dapitan
on August 1-3, and Bohol on August 28-30.
