| Policy & Registration Fees |
The 2026 Festival hones in on Choreographic Theatre, Enrique Pardo’s work brand-name. Linda Wise will include her own relationship to both Enrique’s work and to the Anarchy & Archetypes topic.
Allusions to Roy Hart and inclusion of his voice work will be inevitably part of this mindscape (plenty to discuss about his relationship to community, communism and anarchy.)
The 2026 Festival will seek reflection and conclusions in transmission, practice and philosophy – and we would very much want all concerned and interested (past or present) to be with us, or online. |

Consult Camping Filament 20 minute walk. We found it pleasant and convenient, mostly bungalows in quiet green areas, with a large pool - it is not at all full before July 15. Their website does look Disney-like - but it is not, outside full summer season.
If you check AirBnB or similar, search for Thoiras area, or near Lasalle - postal codes 30140 30460. (You may need to have or share a car for this - or bike...) |
