Residency

2003
Populärkultur. Moose Dance Company.
Residency host: Gävle teater

Since the start of Dansnät Sverige in 2003 some of the network’s partners have on an yearly basis hosted a choreographer or a company. In this way, the artist was given the opportunity to create a new dance performance in residence. The opening night took place at the residence venue and was then toured to Dansnät Sverige’s remaining partners. The choreographer was given the chance to develop the work under a longer period, and on a longer continuous touring period than is usual. The form for the residence has varied from the choreographer’s wishes and local conditions. The residence host has been given an opportunity to follow a creative process, with all that it involves on demands of functional premises, adequate technic and discussions concerning its purpose and expression. In addition, possibilities have been created to participate in workshops, lectures and other activities, and in which the local dance environment was stimulated and the choreographer and dancers were given the opportunity to put their thoughts about the performance into words.

The last residence was given 2010.  Dansnät Sverige has since 2014 worked with different national co-production models, supporting dance-artists in their work.
