BANDART on their residency during Roundabout Europe 2019
- 28-01-2020
We wanted to create an outdoor version of our previous indoor show by completely changing its plot. Our goal was to keep the already existing characters of the show. Moreover, we wanted to create experiments with the audience, therefore, we wanted to learn techniques and tricks of how we could involve them. Although we have a five-year experience in performing on the street, we have never done real audience-participatory work.

Léa Dant about her residency during Roundabout Europe 2019
- 14-01-2020
I had done this one time crazy project in 2018 in my home-country, France: create a performance with more than 30 women in less than 30 hours to show images of sisterhood in public space. I didnt expect it to be more than that, but it was really powerful, so I decided to pursue and it became Capital WOMEN / De femme à FEMMES. My main expectation with applying for Roundabout Europe was to enable this project to become alive once again, and have more women benefit from the experience.
