Programming at Dansens Hus
Application deadline August 5th at 13.00.
Dear dance artist.
Dansens Hus would love to receive inquiries for inclusion on its programme from Norwegian choreographers and choreographers living and working in Norway. These are reviewed jointly by Artistic Director Stine Nilsen and the Artistic Council, which is made up of selected Norwegian and international advisers who are experts in Norwegian and contemporary dance.
The Artistic Council meets twice a year, when it carefully reviews the applications received and then presents its recommendations, which the Artistic Director then uses when drawing up the artistic programme.
Application deadlines for the Artistic Council are synchronised with those of the Norwegian Cultural Fund and Audio and Visual Fund.
You can apply for:
- letter of intent for a production that is still in the pipeline, or which has applied for funding
- inclusion on the programme as a guest artist with a finished production
The Artistic Council is made up of:
Stine Nilsen, artistic director at Dansens Hus, dance artists Jens Jeffry Trinidad and Irene Vesterhus Theisen, performing arts curator, producer, dramaturge and coach Eva Martinez and performing artist Sebastian Tjørstad.
More information about the members of the council can be found HERE.
Application
Due to the international nature of the Artistic Council, we kindly request that you submit your application in English.
Deadline for application is August 15th at 13.00.
