tanzRAUM Faust
Space for the dance scene
Landerer & Company and the Kulturzentrum Faust e.V. invite professional dancers from Hanover and Lower Saxony to use the Kunsthalle Faust as a production venue and rehearsal space.

Background
TanzRAUM Faust is a barrier-free, fully equipped production venue for professional dance artists. The Kunsthalle Faust offers a spacious, flexible space that provides ideal conditions for creative work processes and artistic development. With TanzRAUM Faust, we want to counteract the lack of spaces for the dance scene in Hanover and Lower Saxony. Our aim is to create a platform and space for local dancers to develop and realize projects and new ideas. We strive to enable rent-free use. However, whether this will be possible depends on the future funding situation and has not yet been determined.

The availability of TanzRAUM Faust can be requested at any time. Interested dancers/ensembles are requested to submit their application with the following information in the application form at the bottom of this page:
- An artistic biography with information on your professional career and/or information on previous projects

- Choreographers based in Germany or from the international dance scene for research-oriented work.
With a view to the most efficient use and sustainable development of the dance scene, we will consider other aspects where necessary. We rely on trusting and transparent cooperation with all partners.
Therefore, in addition to the criteria mentioned above, we take other relevant aspects into account when making requests for the use of the space:
