Want to see our show AWAKE at a venue near you?

Are you interested in seeing The Awake Project’s show AWAKE?

We are welcoming all kind of help with connecting us with venues, located around the corner or on the other side of the world.

If you have a venue near you that you think would be great for our show, don’t hesitate to contact them and let them know.

If everything goes well, we will then be able to play at a venue you can visit!

Awake Youth gets its own blog

Hi everyone!
logotype designed by Karl Trangärd.

We all love our youth projects,
that’s why I’ve created an own blog for Awake Youth!
Right now it’s just a few posts, but that will change in the future. The purpose with this is to show that Awake Youth is not the same as The Awake Project’s show AWAKE.
For now it’s this blog, in the future I’d like to see a community with actual youths using the forums (I will look into how to integrate forums with that blog).

I will post a short notice here when there’s a big thing posted on the Youth-blog, but to stay updated with everything that’s in the making in Awake Youth you should also check that blog.
What are you waiting for? Go check it out!

Short news briefing

Hi everyone!

Photo by Linnéa Pettersson.

Even though the blog has been a bit passive lately, there’s actually quite much going on in The Awake Project.

We are right now starting up a collaboration with the Polish Brave Festivals side-project Brave Kids together with Awake Youth. I actually wrote a blog post long as a regular sized novel about this, but the bloghost decided not to save it. Will write more about this very exciting children’s project who will involve children from all over the world. We’re arranging the Swedish part of the project, me, Anton K. Andersson will be our organizer and Christopher Sivertsen and Maria Sendow will direct the children’s show in Poland.

We are also working together with Önstaskolan in Västerås, to arrange an Awake Youth Project in December.

Since I’m already talking about Awake Youth, I’m happy to announce that we are in the making of a fresh logotype and webpage for the youth projects together with Swedish designer & artist Karl Trangärd. You will know all about it when the work is done.

As I’ve mentioned in earlier blog posts, we are producing promotion packs right now. If you are interested in getting a promotion pack, please contact Anton K. Andersson. Suggestion for e-mail topic: “Promotion pack, please!”. The promotion packs will be available after tuesday 20 october. I will also make sure that these are available in digital format, but this might take a few days more.

Finally, we will be promoting The Awake Project in a networking day between cultural workers and schools and other interested on 21 october, 12.00 – 12.20 at CuLTUREN, in Västerås, Sweden. Welcome!

Happy in body and mind,
Anton K. Andersson
Producer of The Awake Project

Maria Sendow organizes show with school children & a chorus

Maria Sendow, artist in The Awake Project, is right now organizing a show in Västerås Domkyrka. The show will be playing Sunday 11 october at 18.00.

The show will be a co-production between Mariakören (not named after Maria Sendow..) and  pupils from classes 3, 4 and 5 from Västerås Waldorfschool.

Translated summary of the show:

“We meet in the cathedral to experience tones, words, light, sound, color, form and scent when Mariakören meets  Waldorfsskolan’s year 3, 4 & 5 together with us get a taste of heaven and a scent of earth.”
