Bodies at Work
Take an (interactive) look behind the scenes of dance creators.
During the Body of Work festival, we are hosting a series of open studios and workshops under the title Bodies at Work. You’ll have a unique opportunity to get to know the practice of dance makers. How is movement material created? How are scenes developed? How do dancers and choreographers collaborate?
Open studio's
During the open studios, you can observe how makers work on dance. The open studios are free and require no registration. You can simply walk in and watch as a visitor. You will not be asked to participate or move.
