Last year, we launched the very first ACT OUT Streaming Festival. One year later, in November 2026, we celebrate the second edition of the AOSF and present six selected performances from Austria online to representatives of Austrian cultural forums and embassies, international event organisers, and members of the press in two pitching sessions with the artists. All recordings, including the pitching sessions, will be available for two months online.
The tour-ready productions represent different genres of the performing arts. All of them have been successfully supported by the ACT OUT tour- and residency programme in recent years. Register below for the festival entrance code. The pitching sessions are also publicly available for replay.
