PINKBUS: First Ride

FIRST RIDE is an open call by PINKBUS aimed at emerging artists, students, graduates, and early-career collectives. The call seeks performative and theatrical projects reflecting the queer/LGBTI+ experience without genre limitations. A number of applications from the Czech Republic and Slovakia were received, from which two projects were selected to be presented as part of the PINKBUS festival program.
