After the previous successful online talks with Hofesh Shechter, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Wim Vandekeybus, we are excited to announce a new hybrid edition of Learn from Marco Goecke!

Programme

8:00 – 9:00 pm – Talk ‘Learn from Marco Goecke’, hosted by RIDCC
9:00 – 9:15 pm – Q&A with Marco Goecke 

This year we are expanding beyond our previous online format by offering a live conversation at Amare in The Hague, making it accessible to everyone in the Netherlands.

For those unable to attend in person, it will still be possible to join from anywhere in the world via the livestream of this interactive talk.

In this talk, Marco will share his professional journey and life experiences, offering inspiration for aspiring choreographers, dancers, and dance enthusiasts. What has shaped his path, and which elements have contributed to his success and which struggles did he encounter?

Curious about Marco’s journey and how it could inspire your own as a choreographer, dancer, or dance lover?

Springboard for choreographic talent worldwide
RIDCC is a unique annual dance festival that brings together new choreographic voices with renowned artistic leaders and programmers, both nationally and internationally. Up-and-coming choreographic talents from all over the world, in all imaginable dance styles, participate in a duet competition, where they can win outstanding awards. During the five-day festival and beyond, the choreographers take part in a talent development programme, providing them with tools to engage in the dance world in a professional and self-confident manner. The purpose of RIDCC is to promote diversity and innovation within the art of dance, by engaging unique, choreographic talent. Through both the competition, as well as the workshops and activities focused on artistic growth, RIDCC aspires to be the best possible springboard for choreographic talent. All of this takes place in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, which makes this city the place to discover the work of a new generation of dance artists from across the world.
