Akademi Choreography Commissions
APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN
Closing date: 18 November 2016, 12:00pm
We’re delighted to bring news of a choreographic development opportunity that will support four South Asian dance projects created by professional artists, from our partners Akademi. The applications will be divided as follows:
- Two projects will be awarded with £5,000 to present a group choreography.
- Two projects will be awarded with £2,000 to present a solo.
The choreography commissions are open to artists with a professional background in any Indian dance style. Akademi will accept applications from the entire Indian dance canon; including all varieties of Indian dance from classical to contemporary, and everything in between. These commissions will not support commercial work created specifically for an entertainment context. The choreographer must be able to clearly articulate the project and the creative process that will be taken with this commission.
