Stories and Strategies for International Dance Touring

Curious about what it takes to tour internationally as a U.S.-based dance artist? Enjoy this session, designed specifically for early- to mid-career dance makers looking to take their work abroad. We’ll kick things off with personal stories and lessons learned from Gaspard Louis of Gaspard&Dancers (NC) and Ariel Grossman of Ariel Rivka Dance (NY), two companies that have recently made international touring a regular part of their work. They share how they first started touring internationally, the unexpected challenges they faced, and how performing internationally has shaped their work and visibility at home.
