Stages - New Nordic Performing Arts
A platform for new Nordic performing arts during Gothenburg Dance and Theatre Festival 2018. A festival within the festival presenting a new generation of performing artists. A place for new stories and new bodies on stage.
Artistically Speaking
This year’s festival panel discussions will focus on art and esthetics. With the ambition of providing space for in-depth conversations concerning relevant issues, we’ve invited international and Swedish guests to the Crystal Foyer at Stora Teatern.
The Curators
Next festival has been put together by a creative team consisting of three curators with a solid experience from the field of Performing Arts, and a thorough knowledge of Gothenburg. The curators are Sarah Melin, Pernilla Appelqvist and Johannes Öhman.
The Audience in focus?
This year´s conference is about the audience and the possibilities and challenges it involves working with the audience in focus.
Find us in five towns
This year, new venues appear on the festival map! In addition to Gothenburg, you’ll find us in Härryda, Uddevalla, Tanum and Vara. The contemporary circus troupe Compagnie XY will be travelling with their 22 acrobats, as will Twisted Feet, Link Bink and Anna Holmström with their action-packed urban dance program. We’ve also invited director Marie Brassard to participate in a regional theatre residency.
