Residencies
The Artistic Team are keen to discuss how residencies can support an artist’s practice. This helps Dance City to have continuity in dialogue with artists about development of work.
Throughout the year Dance City offers residencies based in its studios and theatre in Newcastle. Residencies seek to support artists with the development of their practice and work as well as bringing creative and inspirational people to Dance City to share their knowledge and skills and to accelerate skills development with other dance artists.
Residency opportunities are open to regional, national and international dance artists and companies.
