1. Dear colleagues and other interested people,
From March 3 to 7, the 7th edition of the International Choreographers Week takes place in
Tilburg. During the week an international group of young choreographers gathers around the
overall theme: In Between Dance Cultures. The five-day event includes workshops, dialogues,
work-sessions, presentations and discussions. During the program the choreographers
research how anthropological and socio-cultural aspects play a role in the creation of dance
and the way we perceive it.
We would like to invite you for the public program. It exists of a lecture and yoga meditation,
evening-sessions around “dramaturgical perspectives” under guidance of dance dramaturge
Guy Cools, performances by Katja Grässli and Bara Sigfúsdóttir and an open sharing by the
participating choreographers.
