At the beginning of 2022, the New Theater Institute of Latvia with Rosendal Teater in Norway, launched a new curator training project \u201cThe Shake Down\u201d with the aim of giving adolescents their own platform for organizing the city\u2019s cultural life according to their own rules. 10 young curators from Latvia and Norway \u2013 Ikars, Estere, Samuels, Alberts, Karu, Annie, Margit, Nicholas, Hedda and Zahida \u2013 will curate programs for two large-scale international performing arts festivals \u2013 a three-day program \u201cThe Shake Down\u201d at the Homo Novus 2022 festival in September in Riga and Rosendal SHAKEDOWN in April 2023 in Trondheim.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cCurrently, we are discussing about the format of the festival. Surprisingly, our thoughts and ideas largely coincide \u2013 the theme of the festival will be dedicated to the changes associated with growing up. Aging in reverse could be the most accurate description of the Shake Down program, \u201d say the young curators who intend to include works by both internationally renowned and local performing artists that can reach an audience of different generations.<\/p>\n

From June you can follow young curators from The Shake Down on the-shake-down.com website, as well as on social media channels, where they will introduce themselves, the program planning process and the artists of the upcoming festival.<\/p>\n

The selection of the team of curators took place in several rounds in January. \u201cI have always liked to take responsibility, organize, try to create something new from available resources. This program seems like a great opportunity to expand the boundaries of your mind, \u201d says Samuels Ozoli\u0146\u0161, one of the curators of the festival program, about the motivation to participate in the project. The young curators come from diverse backgrounds and each stands out with their abilities in both visual and performing arts \u2013 several Latvian teens are members of the theater studio \u201cStairs\u201d, have participated in the performances of the Homo Novus festival, while Norwegians include a representative of the local youth party and young people from under-represented communities.<\/p>\n

Six experienced international festival creators have been working with young people in weekly online sessions since February \u2013 Bek Berger, artistic director of NTIL, Alexander Roberts, artistic director of the Rosendal Teater, Sodja Zupanc-Lotker, PhD and lecturer at DAMU, Marta Keil, performing arts curator, dramaturge and researcher, Asgerdur Gunnarsdottir, curating producer and dramaturg at DansiT, and festival \u201cHomo Novus\u201d producer Santa Remere. In March, the young curators met for the first time in person at the residence in Trondheim, and in June the young people will spend a week in C\u0113sis with their mentors.<\/p>\n
