GLAO OSCAILTE: EALAÍONTÓIRÍ DAMHSA GAEILGE / ÉASCAITHEOIRÍ CEARDLANN

Tá CoisCéim BROADREACH ag lorg iarratas ó ealaíontóirí damhsa gairmiúla agus ó oideoirí gluaiseachta a bhfuil taithí acu, atá lonnaithe in Éirinn agus atá líofa sa Ghaeilge. Tá an glao seo á eisiúint chun ealaíontóirí a earcú chun ceardlanna a bhaineann leis an léiriú dar teideal A CORPO LIBERO in 180° Virtual Reality a sheachadadh, i gcomhar leis an gcóiréagrafaí Iodálach Silvia Gribaudi.

Glacfaidh na healaíontóirí a roghnófar páirt in oiliúint ghairmiúil dhá lá (íoctha) i mBaile Átha Cliath (10–11 Bealtaine) faoi stiúir Silvia Gribaudi (trí mheán an Bhéarla). Tar éis na hoiliúna seo, beidh na healaíontóirí mar chuid de phainéal éascaitheoirí oilte ar a bhféadfadh CoisCéim glaoch chun ceardlanna a sheachadadh ar fud na hÉireann de réir mar a thagann deiseanna chun cinn.

FAOIN TIONSCADAL

Léiriú damhsa is ea A CORPO LIBERO atá scannánaithe i réaltacht fhíorúil 180°, a chuireann gach ball den lucht féachana sna suíocháin tosaigh lárnacha den léiriú. Leanann ceardlann damhsa cruthaitheach an taithí VR, ag déanamh iniúchadh ar théamaí mar íomhá choirp agus saoirse léirithe.

Trí úsáid a bhaint as greann, spraoi agus taiscéalaíocht bunaithe ar ghluaiseacht, tugann na ceardlanna cuireadh do dhaoine óga (idir 12–14 bliana d’aois go príomha) machnamh a dhéanamh ar an mbealach a mbogann coirp, a gcumarsáidíonn siad agus a léiríonn siad féiniúlacht. Tá an clár deartha do scoileanna agus do shuíomhanna pobail, go háirithe i gceantair nach mbíonn mórán deiseanna acu rochtain a fháil ar thaibhléirithe beo.

Tá an tionscnamh seo bunaithe ar mhúnla camchuairte FRANCIS FOOTWORK de chuid CoisCéim, sraith ceardlann, léirithe VR agus tionscnamh dar teideal CREATIVE DANCE TALES a shroich níos mó ná 2,000 leanbh ar fud na hEorpa ó 2023 i leith.

CÉARD ATÁ I GCEIST LEIS AN RÓL

Déanfaidh an t-iarratasóir rathúil na nithe seo a leanas:

  • Páirt a ghlacadh in oiliúint dhian dhá lá (íoctha) i mBaile Átha Cliath (10–11 Bealtaine) faoi stiúir Silvia Gribaudi, a chuimsíonn rannpháirtithe ceardlainne poiblí/scoile. (Tabhair faoi deara: Déanfar an oiliúint trí mheán an Bhéarla).
  • An creat cruthaitheach agus an cur chuige éascaithe a fhoghlaim le haghaidh ceardlanna a bhaineann le A CORPO LIBERO.
  • Páirt a ghlacadh i roinnt eolais agus i malartú ealaíne le CoisCéim agus le comhoibritheoirí idirnáisiúnta.
  • Bheith mar chuid de phainéal éascaitheoirí oilte ar a bhféadfaí glaoch chun ceardlanna a sheachadadh i scoileanna agus in ionaid phobail ar fud na hÉireann, agus d’fhéadfaí iad a fhostú freisin chun ceannairí ceardlainne gairmiúla a oiliúint chun an tionscadal a chur in oiriúint go háitiúil go hidirnáisiúnta.

CÉ AR CHÓIR DÓIBH IARRATAS A DHÉANAMH

Tá an deis seo dírithe ar dhaoine atá líofa sa Ghaeilge, agus d’fhéadfadh sé a bheith oiriúnach do:

  • Ealaíontóirí Damhsa a bhfuil taithí acu ar mhúineadh nó ar éascú le daoine óga.
  • Ealaíontóirí Damhsa a bhfuil suim acu i gcleachtas rannpháirtíochta nó i gcleachtas atá gafa go sóisialta.
  • Éascaitheoirí Damhsa atá compordach ag obair i dtimpeallachtaí scoile nó pobail.
  • Cleachtóirí Damhsa atá oscailte don fhoghlaim chomhoibríoch agus do mhodhanna ealaíne a oiriúnú.

Riachtanach: Caithfidh iarratasóirí a bheith dátheangach (Gaeilge/Béarla), mar is amhlaidh go seachadfar ceardlanna sa dá theanga.

Ba chóir go mbeadh 3 bliana de thaithí ghairmiúil ar a laghad ag iarratasóirí ar cheardlanna damhsa cruthaitheacha a threorú do dhaoine óga. Ní mór scileanna éascaithe láidre a bheith acu, mar aon le suim i bpróisis damhsa cruthaitheacha, agus dúthracht chun spásanna fáilteacha agus cuimsitheacha a chruthú do dhaoine óga.

Is féidir le hiarratasóirí a bheith lonnaithe áit ar bith in Éirinn. Beidh iarratasóirí freagrach as a gcuid costais taistil agus lóistín féin má iarrtar orthu freastal ar agallamh.

OPEN CALL for Irish speakers: Dance Artists / Workshop facilitators

CoisCéim BROADREACH invites applications from experienced, professional dance artists and movement educators based in Ireland who are fluent in Irish to train and deliver workshops connected to A CORPO LIBERO in 180° Virtual Reality by Italian choreographer Silvia Gribaudi.

The selected artists will take part in a paid two-day professional training in Dublin (10–11 May) led by Silvia Gribaudi in English. Following this training, the artist will join a panel of trained facilitators from which CoisCéim may draw to deliver workshops across Ireland as opportunities arise.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

A CORPO LIBERO is a dance performance filmed in 180° virtual reality, placing each audience member front row centre inside the performance. The VR experience is followed by a creative dance workshop exploring themes of body image and freedom of expression.

Using humour, play and movement-based exploration, the workshops invite young people (primarily ages 12–14) to consider how bodies move, communicate and express identity. The programme is designed for schools and community settings, particularly in areas with limited access to live performance.

This initiative builds on the touring model of CoisCéim’s FRANCIS FOOTWORK, a VR performance and CREATIVE DANCE TALES workshop series that has reached more than 2,000 children across Europe since 2023.

WHAT THE ROLE INVOLVES

The successful applicant will:

  • Attend a two-day paid training intensive with Silvia Gribaudi (10–11 May, Dublin), which includes public/school workshop participants
  • Learn the creative framework and facilitation approach for workshops connected to A CORPO LIBERO
  • Take part in knowledge-sharing and artistic exchange with CoisCéim and international collaborators
  • Join a panel of trained workshop facilitators who may be engaged to deliver workshops in schools and community venues across Ireland and potentially train professional workshop leaders to localise the project internationally.

WHO SHOULD APPLY

This opportunity is for people who are fluent in Irish and may suit:

  • Dance Artists with experience teaching or facilitating young people
  • Dance Artists interested in socially engaged or participatory practice
  • Dance Facilitators comfortable working in school or community environments
  • Dance Practitioners open to collaborative learning and adapting artistic methods

Essential: Applicants must be bilingual in Irish/English, as workshops may be delivered in both languages.

Applicants should have at least 3 years professional experience in leading creative dance workshops with young people, strong facilitation skills, an interest in creative dance processes, and a dedication to creating welcoming and inclusive spaces for young people.

Applicants may be based anywhere in Ireland and are responsible for their own travel and accommodation if required to take part in the interview.

SELECTION PROCESS

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to interview with a small selection panel. One artist will be selected to participate in the May training and join the facilitator panel.

KEY DATES

Application deadline: 7 April 2026
Interviews: 25 April 2026, Dublin
Training intensive with Silvia Gribaudi: 10–11 May 2026, Dublin

HOW TO APPLY

Submit the following materials:

  • A short statement of interest (max. 300 words)
  • A CV or short biography highlighting relevant facilitation or teaching experience together with weblinks where appropriate
  • Links to relevant artistic work (optional)
  • Details of a referee
