Since 2011, we've organized over a dozen double-billed tours across 8 countries in Europe. We import and export creative ensembles while supporting UK artists in touring. Our mission is to create new works and collaborations, develop audiences, and offer educational programs. Exciting plans include expanding to new countries and festivals, involving new UK ensembles, and enhancing our educational projects.
