RESIDENT CHOREOGRAPHER PROGRAM
The Resident Choreographer Program was developed in 2018, in partnership with Place des Arts and Agora de la Danse, to recognize and support mid-career dance makers.
Springboard provides these exceptional artists with residencies, opportunities to network with producers and venues, and informal showings of their work at notable venues within the summer project's host city. Our inaugural Residents, former Emerging Choreographers Jasmine Ellis and Michael Getman, have been commissioned internationally and have employed Springboard dancers as their collaborators.
The Resident Choreographer Program was developed for former Springboard Emerging Choreographers whose work is captivating and boundless, positioning themselves at the forefront of the international choreographic scene. Springboard curates these exceptional artists who have been commissioned for international productions. Springboard provides creative residency support, including the awe-inspiring dancers selected to participate in the summer project, studio space for both independent research and collaborative rehearsal, and informal showings at public venues within the host city.
