LIP - Looking for International Partners - is a program which is designed to encourage the creative stages of international collaboration; conception of ideas, development of project, and circulation of production.

LIP Pitch Session, by helping international collaboration project to be exposed, facilitates ideas to be developed, visions to be shared and works to be met by international cooperative partners. Participants present their ideas or production plans on various stages (creating, developing, and distributing) in order to seek for their international partners such as actors, choreographers, co-producers, presenters, etc.

Deadline for LIP Pitch Session: August 17

LIP Showcase, by presenting the excerpt or full-length showcase of international co-production for its premier, faciitates its distribution and circulation on world stage. Check website for the eligibility conditions for the showcase.

LIP is a great way not only to discover well-suited partners, but also to witness the gradual development of a production. Eventually, it leads to understand how ‘Creative Cooperation’ is achieved in joint global projects. We encourage anyone who is interested in the dynamics of international collaborations and looking for a partner who wants to join a global production.
