Dear Colleagues,

The call for intents and proposals to host World Stage Design 2025 (WSD) is postponed to September 15, 2021. The vision presentations for WSD 2025 will take place online at OISTAT Online World Congress during October 8-13, 2021.

World Stage Design (WSD) is an OISTAT event held every 4 years that is comprised of 4 distinct components that are presented simultaneously:

1. International Design Exhibition and Competition

2. Scenofest

3. Theatre Architecture Competition (TAC)

4. Technical Invention Prize (TIP)

In addition to the 4 components of WSD, the OISTAT World Congress will also be held during WSD.

The primary goal of World Stage Design has been to present an exhibition of designers work that explores the breadth and diversity of international design practice.

Each WSD has developed a complimentary programme of activities representative of all of OISTAT’s commissions: The Scenofest. This has in the past included performance programmes, symposiums, workshops and masterclass programmes. Each WSD organizer is invited to create their own unique Scenofest programme to run alongside the exhibition.

WSD moving forward as a quadrennial project of OISTAT will connect creators, practitioners, artists and audiences in an international festival and celebration of performance design, theatre architecture and technical theatre.

At the Online World Congress in 2021, we will give interested contenders the opportunity to present their vision and plans for WSD 2025. After the World Congress, the newly elected Executive Committee shall evaluate the proposals and designate the location for WSD 2025 before February 2022. OISTAT Headquarters and Executive Committee will form an advisory group to facilitate the preparation process of WSD.

Bid guidelines for hosting WSD 2025 are detailed as following:
