MUSHO! FESTIVAL 2016 - get your proposals in now!
PANSA KZN will be hosting the Musho! International Theatre Festival from 13 January to 18 January 2016.

Selection criteria for the festival include:
· The work must have only one or two persons only performing.
· The work should be an innovative and interesting concept.
· The work should have potential appeal for local audiences.
· The work should be able to perform in festival conditions, with quick get-in and strike, and simple technical requirements.

· The company or individual should have a good track-record and reputation.
· The work should not have played publicly in Durban in the past 12 months.
· The work should be 50-70 minutes in length.
