The Choreographic Development Residency (June 18 – July 22) is a 5-week

program to foster the development of new work by emerging choreographers of

exceptional promise. UNCSA Summer Dance will award 4 choreographers the

opportunity to further their choreographic research and create new dance works by

providing studio space, dancers, mentoring with Helen Pickett, workshops and a fully

produced performance of the work. Room, board and stipend are provided.

The 5-week residency will consist of daily technique class (optional); morning mentoring

sessions, workshops, and lectures all led by esteemed Summer Dance faculty and

guests; followed by afternoon rehearsals with a cast of dancers from UNCSA Summer

Dance. In the evenings, choreographers will have access to UNCSA’s beautiful studios

for further choreographic research. The residency will culminate in a performance of the

work on July 21 at the Stevens Center in downtown Winston Salem. Video

documentation of the work will be provided.

Choreographers will be chosen from an open call for submissions. We are looking for

emerging choreographers who exhibit a strong choreographic voice and exceptional

promise. Two Contemporary choreographers and two Contemporary Ballet

choreographers will be selected.
