Contextualizing Dance

Does dramaturgy support the development of choreographic artworks? 

Together with choreographers, dramaturgs, critics, academics and producers we would like to uncover the role of dance dramaturgy as a practice of contextualization. We will explore the tools that it can provide for artistic practices: 

  • What is it that it can do for the context of a choreography and how does it do that? 
  • How does it support and affect the development of a choreography – from idea,  through concept to the process and the final show? 
  • Which tools are available and how can they be used by the artists also? And what tools are we missing? 
  • Can a collaboration between the dramaturgy and the choreography help to make dance more relevant to more audiences? Without compromising the artists’ idea?

Bora Bora together with dance dramaturg Thomas Schaupp hosted a hands-on public symposia on “Contextualizing Dance – Dance Dramaturgy as a practice of interlinking Art with the Society” the 13th and 14th of December 2019 at Bora Bora in Aarhus, Denmark.

This symposium could be seen as a continuation of Bora Bora Residency Centers’ work to develop choreographic and movement-based art and its terms in Denmark and abroad. In interweaving artistic, theoretical and practical contributions with curated spaces for fruitful interactions and discussions, this event provided nutritious ground for profound knowledge-transfers and discussions, in which everyone was regarded as an expert – not least the general audience.

Program for the conference: Bára Sigfúsdóttir, Fabio Liberti, Merel Heering, Andreas Constantinou, Danjel Andersson, Synne Berndt, Tina Tarpgaard, Peter M. Boenisch, Pia Krämer, Monna Dithmer, Jesper de Neergaard and Annette van Zwoll.

Micro & Macro - Dramaturgies in dance

Micro and Macro Dramaturgies in Dance er et to år langt europæisk forsknings- og træningsprojekt, der samler seks førende moderne danseorganisationer: Anghiari Dance Hub og Marche Teatro (Italien), Bora Bora (Danmark), Dance House Lemesos (Cypern) , DansBrabant (Holland) og Tanec Praha (Tjekkiet). Målet er gennem udveklsing og samarbejde at udforske dramaturgi som en kreativ og socialt bevidst praksis.

Projektet er koordineret af Tanec Praha og kurateret af et videnskabeligt hold af dramaturger: Guy Cools, Katalin Trencsényi, Maja Hriešik og Anne-Marije van den Bersselaar.

Projektet er i sit andet år i 2022 og afholder workshop på Bora Bora i perioden 21.-30 marts 2022.
