Caroline Beach (GER)
Caroline Beach (Dallas, Texas, 1990) is a choreographer and performance artist based in Dresden and Berlin. She holds an MA in Choreography from the Palucca Hochschule and is finishing a Masters at the AdBK Nürnberg under prof. JP Raether. She has made works for a multitude of spaces across a range of mediums including theaters, galleries, offspaces, a lake, the Internet, and a media storage closet. She explores much of her work through the lens of Sailor, a slippery and permeable avatar that sails around the materiality of desire beyond the neoliberal chokehold. She plays in the band Cocktail Napkin with Casey Ouzounis.

UP
The purpose of UP is to develop and upskill the independent performing arts throughout Denmark. We define the free and independent performing arts as individuals, collectives and companies who work professionally with performance and primarily for and with independent performance groups, project supported companies, and lesser established theatres. Often without permanent access to a stage or a venue.
