Los Angeles Performance Practice is thrilled to further expand on our Research + Development (R+D) program offerings by announcing a new residency opportunity for parents/guardians.
The program will support an early development process for two invited projects. Each invited residency will receive a $1,200 stipend, a $800 contribution towards childcare expenses, and one week or approximately 40 hours in a work/rehearsal space. We are open to artists constructing their time in a way that serves their creativity and their parenting lives, and will work with each invited artist to find an appropriate work space based on the project’s needs and the program’s available resources.
Invited artists will meet periodically with LAPP producers throughout their activities. Activities will be co-designed with the LAPP team, and will take place over a period of one week or approximately 40 hours. At the culmination of the program, artists will engage in a formal report back to LAPP staff and fellow artists, sharing research, progress, and potential plans for presenting/developing the work. All activity must be in accordance with state and local health guidelines.
This offering is designed for parent/guardian artists with dependents under 18 years of age.
This program is made possible with support from the Sustainable Arts Foundation.
