This year, the Santiago Off Foundation has decided to focus its entire panorama to the public in a mixed format: face-to-face-digital.
The different creations that will be presented during the 10 days of the festival in digital format, will be in the regions of Aysén, Los Ríos, BioBío, Magallanes, Maule and Valparaíso, in order to take the reins in cultural decentralization, holding activities with a view to incorporating various audiences that, in a different scenario, could not make visible, feel and learn from face-to-face programming.
Within the 10 cultural days there will also be training and specialization activities of the School Off 2021, which this year will be focused on Scenic Design, and the Programming Meeting, where the Stgo Off / Live EXPORT project will premiere, which seeks to position the work of national creators abroad.
The Santiago Off International Festival is carried out thanks to the financing of the Fund for the Promotion of Performing Arts of the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage.
