The ABC of Micro and Macro Dramaturgies in Dance is an open-access glossary written by the participants of the MMDD research & training project (2019-22), a collaboration between six European contemporary dance organisations, supported by a Creative Europe grant.

The project brought together six contemporary dance organisations to explore and develop dance dramaturgy through exchange and collaboration, as a creative and socially conscious practice.

The aim of this publication is not merely to mark the  destination of the project's journey but to share it with the wider (professional) community and invite everyone inspired by our discoveries to continue the conversation and the exploration.

More information about the project and publication available here.
