ACE dance and music are offering professional dancers the opportunity to participate in an intensive residency with internationally acclaimed Japanese choreographer Akiko Kitamura. This exciting professional development opportunity will take place at the ACE dance and music studio, the Link Dance Space, Birmingham, from 14th to 18th February 2011.
Highly admired choreographer Akiko Kitamura, formally of the Leni-Basso dance company, Tokyo, previously collaborated with ACE dance and music on their celebrated production ‘Skin’, which toured successfully both in the U.K. and abroad from 2007 to 2008. ACE dance and music are looking to build on this creative relationship and use this residency as a research and development period for their next production ‘ICE’ (working title).
Akiko Kitamura is known worldwide as a leader in contemporary dance and her work continues to tour across continents. This residency will give participants the opportunity to experience her distinct style of dance, and will offer a flavour of the production to come. In summer 2011, Akiko Kitamura will return to Birmingham to collaborate with ACE’S Artistic Director Gail Parmel and will co-produce ‘ICE’ for touring from autumn 2011.
The five day residency is priced at £100.00 per dancer, with limited places available. For more information or to apply for a place please email Charlotte Gregory at info@acedanceandmusic.com with C.V., photo and letter of interest. Deadline Friday 21st January.
