Open demonstrations

The open demonstrations are directed at companies that have a finished creative product and want to present it to a more extended audience, who has the opportunity to get closer to highly advanced creative processes.

PLAT (Free, Artistic, and Transformative Practice)

A space for free, artistic, and transformative practice. The purpose of this new initiative is to provide artists and companies in residence with a flexible environment where they can share, experiment, and test their creative processes, without the pressure of presenting a finished work or a specific stage proposal.

The space aims to foster transparency in the creative process, establish connections with the local community, promote artistic transformation, and break down hierarchies, creating a horizontal environment where dialogue and collaboration are prioritized.

Companies or artists can present any type of creative material, and the management team at La Central will provide logistical and technical support. The P.L.A.T is open to professionals in the field as well as to the general public interested in contemporary art.

T.E.S.T.!

The T.E.S.T.! demonstration (accompanied by the residency with the same name) allows projects in the making to have a first staging opportunity similar to what they will find in a theater room. During two weeks, the selected project has at its disposal the Posada en Escena Hall, with all the technical facilities that its show may need and that the equipment can offer. The company will only be asked to bring its own technical staff (lighting technician and, eventually, sound and assembly technician). At the end of the residency, the company will open the doors of the hall as part of an open demonstration, with the aim of putting this first staging to the test, bringing a general public closer to contemporary creation, and allowing the professionals in the field to discover a work about to be released.

EP

EP is the acronym for Extended Play. In the world of music its used to describe a recording format longer than a Single and shorter than an album. Generally, an EP has a duration between 20 and 25 minutes. At La Central del Circ we understand this extended recording concept as a format between number and long performance. The music acronym then acquires a new connotation: our EP stands for Extended Performance.
