EMDOD's CIR is created as an extension of EMDOD's core values of cultivating, exploring, collaborating, and growing together. The CIR program offers an opportunity and space for companies to develop leading new creations or revisit sustained repertory as well as build connections with the EMIA participants. With an intention to support artists across the intergenerational spectrum, companies selected are offered studio space, performance opportunities, marketing materials, residency housing, and connections to grow their audience base.
