Made in Scotland
Made in Scotland is a curated showcase of some of the most exciting dance and theatre productions from Scotland at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. It was set-up to raise the international profile of Scottish dance and theatre, and is a joint initiative between the Festival Fringe Society, the Federation of Scottish Theatre and Creative Scotland - supported by the Scottish Government’s Edinburgh Festivals Expo Fund.
The deadline for applications to be part of the Made in Scotland 2012 programme is 28 November 2011. Please download the full application guidelines for a detailed description and information on how to apply:
International Touring
A key aim of the initiative is to maximise the benefit for Scottish artists on the international platform that is the Fringe. As part of this, funding is allocated to support Scottish dance and theatre companies to take up international touring opportunities arising from performances at the Fringe. To date, Made in Scotland has supported companies to present their work in Europe, USA, Australia and New Zealand.

About the Scottish Government’s Edinburgh Festivals Expo Fund
The Scottish Government has a commitment to support Scottish artists by creating the Edinburgh Festival Expo Fund to promote Scottish work at the Edinburgh Festivals. The fund was established in 2008 and is managed by Creative Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Government and the programme is specifically targeted at the 12 festivals who are members of Festivals Edinburgh. However, a different approach was needed for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe as it's an un-programmed, open access festival and a major international showcase for Scottish artists within the performing arts. This led to the development of Made in Scotland.
