Dance / Theatre research residency

Dance / Theatre research residency Deadline: 31 Jan 2027 Country: France Résidence de recherche La Foulerie is a place of questioning and experimentation that responds to the needs of artists to research, explore and open up new horizons. The immediate proximity of nature is an invitation to become one with nature, a break from the hustle and bustle that is conducive to research. The calm that reigns here makes it a retreat, a haven to come and practise your art and techniques without reinventing everything, simply to be in the peace and quiet to practise. It’s also an ideal place to try out spectacular forms that need to meet an audience, or to experience performance conditions with a curious and supportive public. Régine and Nico work on a daily basis to create links with local residents. La Foulerie is right in the middle of a rural area, so it’s open to any artistic approach that needs to meet and/or frequent the farming world.
