PACT Zollverein 2012

This autumn PACT Zollverein celebrates its 10th birthday. Supported since last year by the Choreographisches Zentrum NRW Foundation, the ›PACT project‹ is set out as a long term enterprise which builds on consistency. Playful, daring and congenial, PACT’s programme for the first half year of 2012 puts its continued reputation as an innovative venue for creative experimentation and new artistic alliances with excellent regional and international connections, resolutely to the test in real-time: 23 artists from 15 countries will take up residency in the former colliery shower building to work over the course of several weeks on developing projects in the areas of performance, visual art, dance and media.

The Feldstärke series, developed at PACT and last seen in an international version, returns to its roots with a fresh regional edition bringing together 6 art academies and universities from NRW.

And even if according to the Mayan Calendar and Roland Emmerich the world will end in 2012, we’re undeterred and optimistically looking forward to sharing with our audience a stage programme featuring 15 productions including 2 world premieres, 6 German premieres, 8 PACT co-productions as well as 2 ATELIERS.

Welcome to the new season!
