What an evening! On Monday, we had the honour of receiving the Dresden City Arts Award 2025 and the Arras Foundation Scholarship. A heartfelt thank you to Katharina Christl for the beautiful and personal laudation – and to our incredible team, the jury, and all partners and supporters who have accompanied us on this journey. Your trust, collaboration, and encouragement mean the world. This award is more than a recognition of our work – it’s a strong signal of support for independent art at a time when cultural funding and democratic values are under pressure. We take it as motivation to keep going: to make dance visible and accessible beyond the city, as an emotional and thought-provoking experience for all. Congratulations also to our co-recipients: Sinfonietta Dresden and Kunstverein Dresden. It was a joy to celebrate alongside you.
