Alternative Stage Dance Festival: Open Call for Artistic Proposals

As part of its artistic mission to support contemporary Greek creativity and foster active exchange with the international arts scene, the Greek National Opera’s Alternative Stage dedicates part of its artistic programme to showcasing new voices in contemporary dance through a festival featuring new productions.

 

This open call is addressed to artists (choreographers) who are in the early stages of shaping their choreographic identity and who have new ideas, an interest in experimentation and diverse aesthetic starting points. Proposals must be original and must not have been presented to the public before. They may draw on different strands of contemporary dance, such as physical theatre, contemporary ballet, hip-hop and street dance, inclusive practices, hybrid or digital performances, and other forms, creating a vibrant mosaic of contemporary movement experience.

 

Up to five (5) proposals will be selected for development as Greek National Opera Alternative Stage productions as part of the artistic programme for the 2026-2027 season.
