big network meeting 2023

The big network meeting is aimed at protagonists in artistic production within the independent performing arts. We understand the field of artistic production in the broadest sense and see it as a collection of numerous and also interconnected focal points and activity profiles (including e. g. administrators, coordinators, production dramaturges, production managers, producers, company managers, managers, controllers, strategists, distributors, consultants, critical companions, etc.).

We understand protagonists of artistic production in the independent performing arts as those who reflect on existing production processes and want to shape them anew or further. Against this background, we see the protagonists primarily as those who accompany production processes of artists and collectives, but do not primarily produce their own artistic practice.

The program will start on 17.11.2023 from 15 o'clock (CEST) and end on 19.11.2023 at 15 o'clock (CEST).

The program overview is easily accessible online.

The big network meeting will be held primarily in German spoken language. In the form below we also ask for spoken languages (German, English, others). This request is further accompanied by another comment field, where you can specify additional languages or further information (for example: "I understand German spoken language, but I prefer to speak in another language myself").

In this way, we can collect information about which spoken languages are needed and whether we can fulfill existing translation needs (e. g., whispered translation) for example within the group of participants. So feel also free to indicate any languages you could/would like to support in the comment field in the language section in the below mentioned registration form.

We offer onboarding sessions for anyone interested in getting to know the work and the program of the produktionsbande network better. The onboarding sessions also provide the interface for accessing our online work platform Slack, where we organize our networking work in different, thematically focused working groups. Participation in an onboarding session is not a mandatory for attending the big network meeting.

Around the big network meeting 2023, we will offer a total of three onboarding sessions for interested parties:

before the big network meeting
For those who would like to have an insight into our network work and organization before the big network meeting, you can register for the session on 08.11.2023, 10:30 - 12:00.

during the big network meeting
An onboarding session will also be part of the program at the big network meeting on site in Dresden. Again, at the beginning of the network meeting, we will provide an overview of the direction, objectives and program points of our network work and organization.

after the big network meeting
All those who would like to clarify detailed questions in a protected, downstream session after the large network meeting are cordially invited to the onboarding in December, on 06.12.2023, 10:30 - 12:00.
