Dance in great form

La Danse en grande forme (Dance in great form) is a col­lect­ive of pro­duc­tion and dis­sem­in­a­tion organ­isa­tions, all com­mit­ted to sup­port­ing cho­reo­graph­ic arts through ambi­tious cre­at­ive pro­jects, in order to reach new audiences.
This approach aims to con­sol­id­ate the eco­nom­ic mod­el for cho­reo­graph­ic cre­ations involving at least ten per­formers, with a sub­stan­tial fin­an­cial con­tri­bu­tion to pro­duc­tion, while also fos­ter­ing shared pro­gram­ming among all col­lect­ive mem­bers in their respect­ive regions.
As of today, the col­lect­ive com­prises 11 organ­isa­tions: 6 CCNs (French Nation­al Cho­reo­graph­ic Centres) 3 CDCNs (French Nation­al Cho­reo­graph­ic Devel­op­ment Centres) and 2 Scènes Nationales (French Nation­al Scenes).

La Danse en grande forme will provide the selec­ted pro­ject with a min­im­um co-pro­duc­tion con­tri­bu­tion of €77,000 (€7,000 per organ­iz­a­tion) to sup­port the cre­ation. Res­id­en­cies may also be organ­ised in some of the mem­ber venues.
