  • Statement presenters network Tanzproduzent:innen Konferenz NRW

    We - the Tanzproduzent:innen-Konferenz NRW (TPK) - are an association of dance organisers and dance venues from nine cities (Bonn, Düsseldorf, Essen, Cologne, Krefeld, Mülheim, Münster, Wuppertal, Viersen) in NRW. Together, we organise the biennial tanz nrw festival and also form a network that supports the independent dance scene in NRW, gives it visibility and presence and also establishes nationwide collaborations.

    In this function, we work very closely with NRW artists and independent dance companies and we have just celebrated the excellence, innovative strength and diversity of this scene with the 10th edition of the tanz nrw festival, which has been significantly supported by the state of NRW since its inception.
