What the official page cannot answer alone.
How ambitious should the required public exchange project be?
“I want to propose a credible exchange without promising a large audience or activity I cannot deliver in an unfamiliar city.”
Match the exchange to your method and the residency period. Define the smallest useful format, who it is for, what support or interpretation it needs and what participants receive. A focused open rehearsal or process conversation can be more credible than a large workshop if it meets the organiser’s current requirements.
