Roberta Levitow in collaboration with Frank Hentschker and Marie Le Sourd have been working all summer on a very important initiative:
The Martin E. Segal Theatre Center has created, in collaboration with the European cultural mobility information network On the Move and the U.S.-based grass-roots international network Theatre Without Borders, a free and user-friendly guide to funding for international exchange for artists traveling from and to the USA builds upon On the Move's existing co-produced guides for artists and cultural professionals in Europe, Asia, and Arab countries (www.on-the-move.org/funding). The Guide will be launched at the Symposium.
