Catalyst Dance Management exists to support, develop and produce the work of independent contemporary dance artists and companies in Scotland.
The Catalyst project lies at the core of Dance Base’s work with professional dance artists, allowing us not only to help companies create new work, but also to make the sector financially strong, confident and artistically compelling. Our passion for Scottish and UK dance drives Catalyst, inspiring individual dancers, companies, audiences and funders.
It is an unique resource for the professional dance community in Scotland, assisting with organisational development and contributing vital skills to smaller companies and emerging artists who cannot afford full-time administrators, producers or company managers.
