Residencies

CPR’s residency programs support the development and creation of new dance and performance work.

Technical Residency

CPR’s Technical Residency focuses on experimentation and collaboration during mid- and late-stages of development. The weeklong residency includes daily use of the large studio/theater, access to CPR’s technical resources, and technical support provided by CPR’s resident Technical Director, with the option to present at the culmination of the residency in CPR’s theater. Artists are invited to apply.

With generous support from the National Endowment for the Arts, CPR’s third Technical Residency was held in October 2017, with selected artist Tatyana Tenenbaum. The Median Movement, comprised of choreographers Xan Burley and Alex Springer, were selected as CPR’s inaugural Technical Residents in May 2016, followed by Kaneza Schaal in May 2017. In 2018, CPR proudly welcomed Sacha Yanow in the Spring and Parijat Desai in the Fall as its Technical Residents. Generous support for CPR’s Technical Residency has also been provided by the Howard Gilman Foundation, Department of Cultural Affairs, and New York State Council on the Arts.
