ZURICH TALKS DANCE
Discussion Series
Under the title «Zurich Talks Dance», Ballett Zürich, Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK), the Zurich Dance Academy, and Tanzhaus Zürich joined forces in 2023 to offer all interested parties deeper insights into artistic, professional, and pedagogical topics in the world of ballet. Through a variety of formats, audiences gain a deeper understanding of the lives and work of dancers, choreographers, ballet educators, and numerous creatives from the dance world — and have the opportunity to meet renowned figures in the field. With this initiative, we aim to present the work of Ballett Zürich in a broader context and to engage in conversation with other dance professionals and dance enthusiasts. The talks are hosted by dramaturg Michael Küster and representatives of the partner institutions.
