About this studio
Skånes Dansteater is a dance venue in Malmö presenting contemporary dance performances by its own company and guest artists. The venue hosts a regular program of productions throughout the year, ranging from world premieres to festival presentations.
Recent and upcoming productions include Afterlife, a world premiere by choreographer Heidi Vierthaler performed by Skånes Dansteaters Kompani, and Invisible Rulers, created by choreographers Michael Tang and Lava Markusson, which explores visible and invisible power. The venue also presents guest performances such as Sound of A Wire and participates in festivals including DansFunk Festival and Danslördag.
The venue welcomes first-time dance-goers. Free program notes are provided for all performances, and filmed introductions to each production are available online, presenting the artists, themes and background. These introductions are designed to guide audiences into the experience without requiring prior dance knowledge.
Accessibility is a priority. The front row (row 1) is at ground level, with four designated wheelchair spaces available, and those under 26 receive a 50% discount on regular performances. Theatre staff and stage managers are available to assist during the evening. Family productions offer specific children's tickets, and age recommendations are typically 12 years and up unless otherwise stated.
The venue offers annual memberships for private and corporate holders, allowing unlimited access to performances throughout the year. Gift cards valid for two years can be purchased and used for tickets to performances at both Skånes Dansteater and Malmö Opera. The venue also runs initiatives including Europe Beyond Access and supports freelance dance artists through dedicated programming and opportunities.
