Central Europe Dance Theatre is happy to announce an international OPEN CALL for
participation in DancEUA Choreo Sync, which we are organizing within the frame of the
dancEUA project co-financed by the Creative Europe.

We launch the open call three times (one time each year of the project), selecting 10
choreographers each time (two choreographers from each partner-country). The academy for
choreographers takes place over three years: twice in Hungary and once in Ukraine. During the
1+3 days of residency, the choreographers create 10 short dance compositions in cooperation
with a mentor. Three or four choreographers will work parallelly in each working period. The
compositions will be presented to the public on the last day of the whole residency program on
the 14th of November.
Choreo Sync is organized as a part of the dancEUA, a Creative Europe project (2024-2027)
created by Studio Contemporary Dance Company – SSP (Croatia), Central Europe Dance
Theatre – CEDT (Hungary), M Studio (Romania), Vitlycke – CPA (Sweden) and UA
Contemporary Dance Platform (Ukraine) to empower Ukrainian contemporary dance through
creativity, connection and resilience.
When is Choreo Sync happening?
