Including 11 spaces, RECIO was born in 2017 in Mexico City as a civil association looking to influence public policies and improve the regulations on independent theaters, and the operativity and management of public theater exhibitions.

OBJECTIVES

Raise Awareness

Size the sector of independent creation theater, in its first step, narrowing down to the 183 spaces of the four Ibero-American networks, to include more networks or spaces in the second step.

Systematize, organize, and accurately classify the information of spaces to ease inquiries via filters.

Articulate and Institutionalize

Information and creation of virtual mesh: we describe each network, how it works, their projects, economic support, strategic orientation, relationship with the rest of the sector, and a basic description of the administrative, social, legal, and economic context on which they perform.

Bank of opportunities: Looking to join intentions, affinities, or preferences regarding performing arts for easy creation of relationships between interested parties, we will create a bank of opportunities that will detail specific calls on certain subjects in the Ibero-American sphere.
