MusicDance is a performance residency for dancers and musicians. Now in it’s fourth year the project draws together artists from diverse genres and backgrounds. The emphasis of the work is interdisciplinary experimentation and real-time composition.
MusicDance Performance Residency provides a transformative experience for artists to extend their skills, artistry and agency while forging new collaborations and lasting artistic connections. The performance platform provides the chance to present new work to the public and offers insight into the immediacy and risk of real-time performance making.
MusicDance is supported by Theatre Arts since 2018
