For Begat Theater, performing La Disparition in Avignon is a great opportunity to reach out to mutli-disciplinary venues and festival directors and to widen our touring scope beyond street theater circuits.

Begat's work touches and inspires you ? You want the company to keep touring and creating new shows ? Help us pursue our mission and vision.

Here is our budget to go to Avignon in July :

EXPENSES 13179 €

Salaries - artistic team 9300 €

Salaries - production 2229 €

Consumable supplies and materials 250 €

Travel and per diem 900 €

Communication 230 €

Royalties 270 €

INCOME 13179 €

Grants 6000 €

Self-financing 2579 € *

KKBB 2500 €

Tickets 2100 €

*WHAT IF, THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, WE GO BEYOND OUR GOAL ?

Well, the self-financing amount of 2579 € comes from Begat's modest cashflow.

All contributions beyond the set objective (2500 €) will further alleviate the company's financial effort, and allow us to invest this amount in our next project instead.

The best case scenario for us would be to reach exactly 5079 € !

One more thing : the real truth is that we don't know yet the amount of the grants we will receive. Our estimate of 6000 € is realistic but cultural budgets have taken a deep blow in the last three years, and we cannot take anything for granted, until we are officially notified by french funding institutions.

Most of all, grant notifications are coming later than ever, which forces us to take a huge leap of faith and endorse a disproportionate risk. What if we only get 5000 € or even 4000 € ? Of course, we will update our KKBB page as soon as we know what amount we've been granted, hopefully by the middle of June.

Until then, please know that every euro is worth gold to us.
