About
Catalyst is a much-needed platform to showcase the high-quality and exciting work produced by Individual Dance Artists who have received support from the Arts Council Northern Ireland through their Support the Individual Artist Programme: including the Artist Career Enhancement Scheme, General Award and Major Individual Award.
Theatre and Dance NI alongside Catalyst curator Eileen McClory have designed this platform that will provide the essential opportunity to showcase the dance talent that exists here in Northern Ireland and for choreographers to showcase their work in a professional capacity. These new dance works have been created to inspire creativity amongst Northern Ireland and further afield. Theatre and Dance NI look forward to welcoming all and sharing this much anticipated platform.
