French and International Companies/Artistic Teams

With French and international companies and artistic teams, Onda plays a role in providing guidance, facilitating connections, and sharing information.

Onda does not provide direct financial support to companies and artistic teams for their dissemination. However, it plays a key role in advising and connecting French and international companies/artistic teams for their distribution in France:

  • Onda’s advisers attend performances on a daily basis in France and abroad, with a particular focus on emerging work, across all performing arts disciplines;
  • At Onda meetings, they share their feedback with the professionals attending and regularly invite artists to present their projects and take part in discussions;
  • Onda regularly shares information through its website (News section) and social media channels with programmers and other professionals about performances and projects worth discovering, with a particular focus on work that has received limited exposure;
  • Onda’s advisers meet with artistic teams and artists based in France and abroad to advise them on the dissemination of their work in France, after attending one or more of their performances or work-in-progress presentations;
  • Onda’s advisers connect artists with programmers through meetings caled Connecting artists and programmers, designed as informal, non-hierarchical opportunities for exchange.

As an indicator: Onda’s six advisors attend an average of 1,600 performances of French and international shows annually. The financial support provided to venues each season reduces hosting costs of over 500 different companies/artistic teams.

Onda Extranet Accueil

You are a French or International company or artistic team looking to meet an advisor

We are a small team of advisors. As much as our capacities allow, we strive to attend performances and meet artistic teams during scheduled meetings.

We carefully review all messages and proposals we receive. However, given the high volume of requests, we regret that we are unable to provide individualized follow-ups to each contact.

First and foremost, please note that Onda supports dissemination, not creation.

To offer more relevant advice, it is essential for one of our advisors to have seen your work performed on stage (or, at the very least, a work-in-progress presentation) before we can consider scheduling a meeting. This is our main priority, so please highlight your performance dates.

Additionally, we focus our attention on performing arts works rooted in a contemporary creative approach. This is our second priority when addressing requests.

For initial contact, please send an email to: artistique@onda.fr

Participation in Meetings

Since the 2023/2024 season, artists participate in meetings by invitation from Onda’s advisors.

For the first time, two of these meetings were co-organized directly with artists.

 

With Production Offices

Production offices are essential links in the dissemination chain and key partners of Onda. Work processes are currently being developed to strengthen these collaborations.
