THEATRE IN TRANSLATION / TEATRO EN TRADUCCIÓN PROJECT LAUNCHES!
Proyecto 34ºS is very pleased to announce the opening of the submission call for this project which aims to encourage the exchange and appreciation of written theatre plays from Africa and Latin America, recognising and rewarding quality, originality and cultural diversity whilst also bridging the language gap through means of translation and actively promoting and ensuring free electronic access to the selected plays by local and international readers.
South African and Argentine playwrights are invited to submit written plays, in any of the national languages of these two countries, for consideration by the judging panel and according to the terms and conditions of the call. Ultimately, ten plays will be chosen from each country and will be translated from their original languages into English and Spanish. These plays will then all be available for free download from the Proyecto 34ºS website and the five Argentine finalist plays will be published in print as one volume. One winner will be chosen from each South Africa and Argentina and will be awarded with a trip to the other country in order to be present at the premier of the translated version of his/her play.
