Approved project from Denmark urgently needs EVS volunteer replacement
Approved project from Denmark urgently needs EVS volunteer replacement
Regional theatre with a strong intercultural profile invites the volunteer to start his participation as soon as possible and preferably in October.
Due to the urgency only applicants from EU countries will be considered.
Project environment:
Odsherred Teater carries out a number of different cultural activities.
Depending on the interest and competencies of the EVS volunteer, the
theatre will be able to offer volunteer tasks within the following
areas:
" the general administration of the theatre
" promotion of the theatre (internationally and nationally)
" the artistic production
" other tasks in connection with international and local activities
Odsherred is a relatively large but sparsely populated area with approx. 40.000 inhabitants.
The theatre is housed in the premises of a former a hospital and the
buildings and the nature surrounding the theatre are very beautiful.
Proposed activities for EVS volunteers:
The theatre is currently engaged in the following activities:
" Cooperation with the Middle East Peace Orchestra - a peace orchestra
which includes Arab and Jewish musicians. The project will take the
form of a performance which involves the orchestra as well as actors
from Odsherred, Odense, Arhus and Aalborg Teater. It is envisioned that
the performance will be shown internationally as well.
" Cooperation with the Lebanese Puppet Theatre / Khayal Centre. The
target group for this project is the immigrant population in Denmark.
" Performances for children
" Developing the relations to external partners in the local area
" General tasks related to the organisation and productions of the theatre
" International promotion activities
The theatre can offer the EVS volunteer a number of interesting tasks
in relation to its activities. Typical tasks include assisting with
production tasks, assisting in internal and external communication
tasks, assisting in the area of international activities, acting as
director assistant, taking part in product development, attending the
courses offered to the staff of the theatre, taking part in the touring
work, research work, etc.
Volunteer profiles and recruitment process:
The age of the volunteer is not so important. However, the volunteer
should be able to work independently take responsibility for the
assigned tasks. A high level of English (verbal and written) is
required and it is an advantage if the volunteer has linguistic
abilities. It will be preferred if the volunteer has a relevant
educational background both in relation to the theatre as an
organisation and as an outgoing cultural institution. The volunteer
should have a desire to work in a small, dialogue-based and socially
well-functioning team consisting of people from different fields of
expertises.
