The 2022 Technical Invention Prize (TIP) calls for simple and smart solutions in technical theatre and the entertainment industry!
The TIP is an international prize awarded to the technicians working in theatre or any part of the entertainment industry who make gadgets, devices or basically simple and smart solutions for theatre work: those clever ideas that are mostly realized by inexpensive means and materials.
