Pivot Dance is a three-year project, funded by the Creative European Programme of the European Union, looking at the value of creating dance performances in consultation with audiences, artists and producers.
Running simultaneously at The Place (UK), CSC Centro per la Scena contemporanea di Bassano del Grappa (Italy) and Nederlandse Dansdagen (The Netherlands), it will culminate in the creation of six new dance shows made with the help of an "Audience Club" in each country.
Over the course of the Pivot Dance project, the selected artists and producers will work with the Audiences Clubs and experienced dance professionals.
The artists and producers who have been selected to participate in Pivot Dance are:
- Sivan Rubenstein and Xavier De Sousa (UK)
- Joseph Toonga and Emma Beverley (UK)
- Giorgia Nardin and Irene Bedin (Italy)
- Elena Giannotti and Lisa Gilardino (Italy)
- Dario Tortorelli and Fred Bax (The Netherlands)
- Iván Pérez and Corinne Blom (The Netherlands)
