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

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.

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.

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.
