Library.Live

Application guidance

Approach Library.Live with a clear sense of how your work engages both text and liveness—not merely as a script to be performed, but as a material or event. They favor proposals that articulate a process, a question, or a durational experiment over fully formed theatrical products. When responding to open calls, be specific about your spatial and temporal needs, and demonstrate awareness of the organization's nomadic, resource-conscious context. A concise, critically reflective artist statement and documentation of past live work (video, scores, or written reflections) are more useful than polished marketing copy. They value dialogue, so consider proposing a workshop or talk alongside a performance.
