Curated by Charlotte Vincent, Juncture is a four week programme of residencies, performances, workshops and critical debates, with an emphasis on female-led work and experimental, cross-disciplinary practice.
During the four weeks there is an intensive “festival” weekend when a high volume of the performances and workshops will take place.

This will include meeting and greeting delegates, assisting artists in the workshops, stage management, hospitality and more. The benefits include access to some of the leading female choreographers in the UK, event management experience and continued professional development.
