Our partners
Live Art Development Agency, London, UK, is a charitable organisation, dedicated to the development of live art research, practice and infrastructure. Founded in 1999, the Live Art Development Agency (LADA) operates from East London and works locally, nationally and internationally. They are the home of the Study Room research collection, which holds an archive of queer performance from the 1980s to today. The archive will form the starting point of the London network meeting focused on preserving and activating queer art histories and a public discursive event for our artistic community. LADA will host the first network meeting in London in June 2026. www.thisisliveart.co.uk
My Wild Flag, Stockholm, Sweden, is an annual dance and choreography festival happening in early September since 2017. The festival offers international and local acts working with experimental formats and intersectional perspectives. MWF can be seen as a choreography in itself, where different communities engage in social choreographies as well as works made for the stage. The festival wants to expose and address urgent themes: bodies, thinking and beings that disturb and embrace the ways in which we perceive the world. MWF will bring their experience of artist-led curation and grassroots activism to the network, and host the second network meeting at the festival in early September 2026. www.mywildflag.com
Rosendal Teater, Trondheim, Norway, is an inviting, curious, super international and hyper local house of performance, theatre, dance, music and debate. Their vision is to transform the performing arts – towards a bold, inclusive and sustainable future. RT is deeply embedded in queer art locally, nationally and internationally, with a significant proportion of its programme given to queer focusses and audiences that are twice as likely to be queer as national averages. RT will contribute its curatorial, and socially engaged expertise to support the project’s goals. www.rosendalteater.no
Warehouse9, Copenhagen, Denmark, brings nearly 20 years of community-rooted queer arts practice in Denmark, where queer performance has historically been underrepresented and under-documented. We are committed to supporting marginalised practices, reimagining the politics of space, and creating artist-centred opportunities. As we approach our 20th anniversary, this network will be instrumental in guiding how we engage with and activate our archive. WH9 will contribute its curatorial, archival, and socially engaged expertise to support the project’s goals. www.warehouse9.dk
