We collaborated with Aerowaves on their Spring Forward Festival which took place in Dublin from 27 – 29 April 2023 by supporting UK artists' mobility to Ireland. Aerowaves worked with a number of local venues in Dublin to showcase the festival, including Project Arts Centre, Smock Alley Theatre, The Complex, Samuel Beckett Theatre and Dance Ireland. This programme provided a platform for some of Europe's most promising choreographers to show their work to performing arts professionals and local audiences. As part of Spring Forward 2023, a selection of work was presented from across 16 countries and showcased a diverse and inspiring selection of choreographers working across Europe. In addition, Oona Doherty presented Hope Hunt and the Ascension into Lazarus, a work that was selected by Aerowaves in 2017, but has never been presented live before as part of the festival.
The UK artists that we supported to come to Ireland included:
• Eva Recacha and her 4-person technical team.
• Ching-Ying Chien, and her 5-person technical team.
