Are you a company, producer, artist, or solo performer with a show for children and young people?
Do you want to perform at the only international festival for performing arts for young audiences in Wales?
Do you want to perform alongside some of the best Welsh and international productions available?
This is the call-out for you.
The Agor Drysau-Opening Doors Festival, organised by Arad Goch Theatre Company, is taking place once again from 8–12 March 2027, featuring performances, workshops, and discussions for audiences, theatre-makers, international programmers, and festival directors. The festival will be centred in Aberystwyth, with some productions visiting other theatres across Wales, such as Theatr Felinfach and Theatr Taliesin.
We are currently programming the festival and would like to hear from professional companies and performers—both in Wales and abroad—about their work. If you would like to submit a proposal to perform at the festival, please complete the form below, along with a full recording of the work to post@aradgoch.org.
We want to bring the best performances to the festival whatever the subject and style – drama, puppet and object theatre, music, poetry or dance. We are also interested in work from minority cultures and languages, and performances for or by under-represented groups including LGBTQ, ethnic minorities and people of different abilities.
Information about the previous festival can still be seen on www.openingdoors.wales
We hope to see you in Aberystwyth next March!
