How can we develop audiences for the work of disabled artists? How can disabled artists be encouraged to participate more actively in the dance scene, as well as the wider cultural scene?

Challenging preconceptions and our own perceptions, members of previous iDance workshops alongside new participants, will have the opportunity to watch highly acclaimed dance productions at the Onassis Stegi during the 2019-2020 season, as well as videos of other seminal dance works.
The workshops will aim at sharing and developing tools for discussion and analysis of the performances, but will also contain practice based work in the studio for further exploration and reflection on the ideas and concepts that arise from this exchange.

Applicants can choose any or as many cycles as they want, but have to be present to all three sessions of each cycle.
Participants will be distributed across the different cycles, depending on the number of applications, so they should await confirmation of attendance for each cycle separately.
More cycles will be offered from the end of February/beginning of March 2020.
