A project designed to stimulate dialogue about dance and performance whilst striving to improve and promote written criticism online.<\/p>\n

After Ume\u00e5, Barcelona, Pilsen, Aarhus, Sofia and Paris, Springback Academy will once again offer aspiring dance writers the chance to be mentored in the fundamentals of quality dance criticism in the action-packed environment of Spring Forward. <\/p>\n

Aerowaves annual festival will take place this year in Rijeka, Croatia on Friday 24, Saturday 25, and Sunday 26 April 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under the guidance of four experienced dance writers, participants have the chance to create, shape and share conversations about dance and hone their critical writing skills for a number of different formats. It’s a fast-track way to gain experience and technique in responsible, effective, attractive dance criticism as well as to explore and understand the opportunities that digital publishing has to offer.<\/p>\n

PLUS \u2013 Two years ago now, Springback Magazine was launched. The publication\u2019s contributors are drawn exclusively from writers who have participated in the Springback Academy programme and who are part of the ever-growing community of Springback Academy \u2018graduate\u2019 writers.<\/p>\n

If selected for the project, Aerowaves will provide mentorship, accommodation, hospitality, a pass to the festival and the opportunity to participate in future Springback activities.<\/p>\n

Participants will be required to organise and fund their own return travel to Rijeka.<\/p>\n

What Springback Academy 2020 will entail:<\/p>\n

10 opinionated people with an interest in, or some prior experience of writing about dance. The participants will be mentored in critical writing by lead critics including Donald Hutera (The Times, London), Sanjoy Roy (The Guardian, London) Kelly Apter (The Scotsman) and Laura Cappelle (New York Times).<\/p>\n

During the Spring Forward festival each participant will:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Attend an introductory lecture about dance writing given by Sanjoy Roy followed by an extended Q & A session.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Have the opportunity to meet informally with the 200 strong Spring Forward audience made up almost exclusively of dance professionals including Springback writers from previous years. <\/p>\n

\u2022 Write short reviews in English (140 words) of several of the performances they see over the weekend. They will work to tight deadlines so that their reviews can be published each day on the Aerowaves\/Springback website<\/p>\n

\u2022 Generate ultra-short reviews, provocations, opinions and questions to share on Twitter – using #Springback to gather the conversations<\/p>\n

\u2022 Participate in a round-table and\/or panel discussions.<\/p>\n

Contribute one longer, opinion-style piece for the Aerowaves website in the week after the festival \u2014 to allow for greater reflection or to draw themes and bigger ideas together.<\/p>\n

How to apply:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Send a summary of your experience in critical review writing (140 words or less)
\n\u2022 Send a sample review (in English) of a dance performance you have seen (140 words or less). This can be an existing review or one you’ve written especially for this application

\n\u2022 Tell in 140 words or less about your local dance scene
\n\u2022 Tell your potential arrival and departure date and time. If selected for the project, you would ideally need to arrive on the evening (if possible by 19:00) of Thursday 23 April and depart on Monday 27 April 2020
\n\u2022 Send all of this in an email to: SBapplications@aerowaves.org before 24:00 (GMT) on Sunday 17 January 2020<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Participants will be notified by email by Saturday 15 February 2020<\/strong> whether they have been selected for the project<\/p>\n
