| p@rt.dk 09 – international showcase
for Danish performing art
P@rt.dk offers an inspiring platform
where international presenters get a unique chance to meet leading directors,
choreographers, artists and producers working in Denmark and thus create
opportunities for collaboration. The programme covers most of the performing
arts: theatre, dance, new drama, performance, contemporary circus, site-specific
work and music theatre, and it includes both extracts and performances
in full length.
In November 2009 Copenhagen International
Theatre organised the second edition of p@rt.dk – an international showcase
for Danish performing arts. 82 international presenters participated in
the two-day platform presenting 37 Danish artists.
The results of the first international
showcase for Danish performing arts in 2006 were absolutely convincing.
Following p@rt.dk 06 around 30 Danish companies and artists were invited
to present their work internationally and to take part in international
collaborations and exchange programmes. The results of p@rt.dk 09 so far
also imply an increasing interest in Danish performing arts, and several
companies have already been invited abroad.
P@rt.dk 06 and 09 were organised by
Copenhagen International Theatre and commissioned and funded by the Danish
Arts Council Committee for the Performing Arts. |
