Figurteatret in Nordland (Nordland Visual Theatre) plays a key role in developing and promoting visual theatre in Norway. Figurteatret offers co-production, pre-projects and residencies through a programme aimed at professional project creators and performers within puppetry and visual theatre.
The programme is open, through application, for both Norwegian and international project creators. Figurteatret co-productions range from traditional puppet theatre to cross-over productions merging elements from the visual arts, theatre, mime, dance and multimedia. This is done in collaboration with puppeteers, actors, directors, stage designers, composers, artists and project creators from the whole world.
