Bora Bora
Bora Bora Residency Centre welcomes proposals once a year through our open call. The programme is open to professional dance artists for projects to be researched and/or developed. The residencies are open to professional dance artists or dance ensembles or stage directors with a strong choreographic idea from all over the world. Each residency will be a 2-3 week residency. In addition, it is possible for Danish or Danish-based artists to apply for consideration for their international residency programmes, which are based on exchanges with the Residency Centre partners (read more about them here). Danish or Danish-based artists can also apply for a co-production, which you can read more about at the bottom of this page.
As a resident Bora Bora Residency Centre, you are requested to:
- Deliver a class or workshop for the local students or artists
- Interact with the local dance community or audience through a sharing or talk about your work
- Contribute with info on your work for their website and newsletter
- Include the Bora Bora Residency Centre on all future publicity materials relating to the work resulting from your residency
- Give feedback to the organizers on the process of your residency
They have a wide range of options from small studios/ataliers to the main stage at Bora Bora (15mx15m) so this will depend on the specific needs of the artist. For more information see the hosts description at the website.
Depending on the local host, artists will be acommodated in rooms or a shared flat. Artists needing to bring their family are welcome to apply.
2 stages, a rehearsal space (a stage of 14×10 meters not incl. audience space). To see a full description of the stages, have a look at their website.
