World Stage Design is an international exhibition of contemporary scenography – the stage, costume, lighting, and sound design. Different from the nation-based exhibition of performance design at the Prague Quadrennial (PQ), WSD is a designer-focused international exhibition, in which the exhibits are submitted by individual designers from around the world.
The exhibition is co-organized by OISTAT and an OISTAT Centre every four years on different continents. The next WSD will be held on August 6-16, 2022 in Calgary, Canada.
