The Anywhere Festival is a two day and a half week festival of comedy, dance, theatre, circus, and music. Anywhere Festival has been running in Brisbane for 10 years and in the Sunshine Coast and Noosa for four years. With more than $8000 of support offered to every show in the festival, it is a popular pick for established and emerging artists who want to try new ideas and take creative license.
In response to COVID, the 2021 Anywhere Festival is making it easier for artists to continue to create work even with restrictions. The core team of the Anywhere Festival includes Artistic Director Paul Osuch, Creative Producer Noosa and Sunshine Coast, Toni Wills, and Digital Program Director Tim Monley.
A First Nations-led workshop series focusing on storytelling and place in Sunshine Coast and Noosa. The festival will also run an online program that is open to performances from anywhere and can be linked with international festivals and company programs. “Anywhere Festival is created with artists at the core, that’s why most performance spaces are provided rent-free, why we limit the size of the festival so shows have the best chance of selling out and why we spend so much time assisting with the creative development of shows and finding the right locations,” said Osuch.
Expressions of interest open on 16 November and close on 6 December.
