Residency Programme

As part of Tanzplan Hamburg every year, until 2010, three choreographers will be awarded residencies for the duration of nine months (April-December). They will be artists at the beginning of their professional careers who have already produced their own works.

This programme, in collaboration with the MA course in Performance Studies at the University of Hamburg, connects the practical work on the choreographers’ own projects with theoretical- and production-related practical knowledge and thus offers new approaches towards the promotion of young artists.

The selected artists develop their own productions during their stay in Hamburg, which will be presented every year in the autumn as part of K3 at Kampnagel. They will be accompanied and supported by artistic mentors and by the dramaturgy, organisational and public relations departments at K3.

The artists in residence will have the opportunity to visit seminars and lectures offered by the performance studies course. They also have the chance to take part in the activities offered by K3, which include training sessions and workshops led by renowned artists as well as courses on dance and performance theory and production-specific aspects like dramaturgy, concept development, public relations, cultural management and backstage production.
