Begins Thursday the 1st of August at 18.00 at the theatre, Stockholms Improvisationsteater. We then have drinks and dinner together before our festival officially kicks off with some ice breaker activities.

SWEDISH WEATHER:
Is unlike Swedes, quite unpredictable. The typical Swedish summer weather is a bit of sun, a bit of rain and then some more rain. HOWEVER, last year the whole rain part was completely left out and we ended up with sun, sun and sun. It was HOT! We advise you to bring summer clothes as well as a pullover and a rain coat…just in case! As we say over here, "there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothes"
SHOES (yes shoes get their own heading):
During workshops we will be in venues where we ask you to take your regular shoes off and put indoor shoes on, so please do bring a pair! Some people use simple socks, however this also entails the risk of slipping.
DIG STOCKHOLM IMPRO FESTIVAL STUDENT POLICY
DIG Stockholm Impro Festival aims at creating a safe and open space for everyone. A space where all participants are treated with respect and feel welcome during the Dig week. This includes workshops as well as evening activities or other events during Dig Stockholm Impro Festival.
“Yes and” is often seen as the base of all improvised theatre, and it is of course one of our cornerstone principles, however we at Dig Stockholm Impro Festival believe another essential principle to keep in mind is “make your partner happy”. We believe that the need to “yes and” should never mean placing yourself or someone else in a position that feels unsafe.
We have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination and harassment of any kind. Dig Stockholm Impro Festival management reserves the right to remove students from workshops or the festival if a situation of discrimination or harassment calls for it.
If you at any point need to raise an issue or discuss a situation, please don’t hesitate to contact Per Gottfredsson (+46 707339762) or Therese Hörnqvist (+46 702796339).
And also……LET THE WORLD KNOW!:
Let the world know how you’re preparing for Dig, using hashtag #digimprofestival2019 when posting on social media. It makes us happy and the rest of the world jealous!
QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS?:
If you have any questions or comments, please contact Per Gottfredsson (+46 707339762),per@impro.a.se
If you prefer to stay at an improviser's home, please let us know and we'll see if we can arrange that.
