🍽️🎭 Creative Forum 2016 – Where Ideas Were Cooked, Shared, and Served
When someone invites you into their kitchen to cook a meal together, it’s not just hospitality - it’s trust. The kitchen is where the real process happens: ingredients are chosen, methods are tested, improvisation meets intuition, and something greater than the sum of its parts begins to simmer.
In 2016, we invited everyone into our creative kitchen.
We welcomed cultural producers, showmakers, and creative entrepreneurs not just to observe - but to create with us. We lifted the lid on how ideas are mixed, balanced, and brought to life. What becomes the magic ingredient in the recipe for a great show? What does it depend on? And can it be recreated?
Eversee: International Creative Kitchen was our answer to a simple question:
What happens when you bring together creative professionals not for talks - but for shared experience?
Over two days, we transformed the traditional professional gathering into something alive, collaborative, and, frankly, delicious.
Here’s what made Eversee 2016 different:
👩🍳 Creative Cooking as Collaboration
We didn’t separate the mind from the senses. Food wasn’t a break - it was part of the program. Sessions blended culinary arts, performance, and co-creation, proving that the way we cook and share meals can mirror the way we build and share ideas.
🧠 No speeches. No panels. Just dialogue.
Participants gathered around roundtables and in interactive labs to exchange ideas on:
* International touring
* Festival production
* Creative education
* The economics of live entertainment
🌍 An international mix of professionals from across Europe led to bold conversations - and unexpected partnerships.
The result? A space that blurred the line between audience and artist, where meals became meetings, and ideas were served as openly as food.
✨ Our biggest takeaway:
Creativity grows best in shared spaces - especially when there’s something cooking.
We’re still inspired by what we built - together.
