Compass Commissions
Applications for the next round of Compass Commissions have now closed. Find out about the successful applicants for this round of Compass Commissions.
Compass Commissions is The Greenwich Dance & Trinity Laban Partnership’s flagship artist development scheme, supporting selected UK-based artists throughout the process of creation. The programme enables innovative concepts to thrive by offering a unique set of resources: cash funds, extensive creation space, advice and production development support. The performances that follow welcome new and existing audiences and raise the standards of productions available for national and international touring.
The offer supports the creation of new works from three strands: site-sensitive, theatre based and works for family audiences. To date, the Compass Commissions programme has supported 6 new dance works from concept to premiere.
