BEGINNING COOPERATION

From June 2017, Nová síť has launched a new startup organization section. New organizations now have the first year to explore the outlines of their cooperation and to get acquainted with the opportunities offered by networking.

We are looking forward to working with

The main activity of this association is to revitalise space through artistic projects, to organise cultural events for general public, to connect different directions of art, and to involve students and graduates in these activities.

BuranTeatr
The BuranTeatr theatre has been active on the Brno independent theatre scene since 2005. Besides the lines of traditional and modern drama productions, which are often created in the form of a devised theatre, in recent years they have been trying to create, cooperate and establish contacts in the fields of movement theatre, new theatre and border theatre forms. In addition to its own theatrical production, it hosts and organises other cultural and social activities (workshops, exhibitions, residential stays, shared fridge initiative, etc.). In 2011, BuranTeatr was ranked 3rd in the Alfred Radok Theatre of the Year Award, and in 2014 it received the Mark Ravenhill Award for the performance Létající dítě.

Since 2015, the site has been organising artistic events and shows (dance, theatre, music, art projects), creative workshops, discussions and think tanks.
