19 young and emerging artists are joining our training programs, led by some of the industry’s most ingenious artists, to learn, create, and share new work at our 23rd Annual Paprika Festival this Spring at Native Earth Performing Arts.Artists will work with Paprika over the year to develop skills in playwriting, directing, collective creation, costume design, producing and beyond!Say hey to some new (and returning) faces!
Our Call for Participants has just dropped and we are excited to meet you! We are inviting applications from young and emerging artists 18-30 across the GTA to apply to our six free professional development programs for the 2023/2024 season. If you think a professional development program, festival environment, and creative incubator is for you, we encourage you to apply for the 23rd Annual Paprika Theatre Festival! During Paprika, artists will have the opportunity to lead their own creative processes with the support of their professional mentors and peers. Programs begin November 2023 and culminate in a performing arts festival of new works by young artists at the Native Earth Performing Arts Aki Studio in May 2024.
Paprika is launching our new monthly donor campaign: Paprika Regulars!
Hello friends and community members,
We're thrilled to welcome a new cohort of young and emerging artists into Paprika's programs for the 19/20 season! This year many of our programs have expanded, and we introduced the Design Lab to offer training and mentorship to young and emerging sound and lighting designers. Also new this year: we expand our reach as we welcome two out-of-province participants who are based in Quebec and Newfoundland & Labrador.
Want to be a part of a community of young and emerging artists? See your ideas come to life with the 19th annual Paprika Festival!
