Since its start in 1995, Skånes Dansteater in Malmö (SE) has created relevant and engaging performances, from grand scale events engaging orchestra and choir to intimate, site-specific performances. The company gives 80 performances annually; in our own venue, at Malmö Opera and on tour.

Skånes Dansteater is Sweden′s largest independent dance company. We are a contemporary dance repertory ensemble presenting works by Swedish and international choreographers.

During the past 20 years Skånes Dansteater has presented relevant and engaging performing art to a wide audience. We have collaborated with choreographers Ben Wright, Marina Mascarell, Alexander Ekman, Kenneth Kvarnström, Antony Hamilton, Marcos Morau, Örjan Andersson, Susanna Leinonen, Jo Strømgren, Björn Säfsten, Philippe Blanchard, Helena Franzén, Hofesh Shechter, Pontus Lidberg, Laurence Yadi, Nicolas Cantillon, Tero Saarinen and Mari Carrasco among others.

Skånes Dansteater’s ensemble consists of fifteen dancers of many nationalities around the world. Working full time they perform in all Skånes Dansteater’s productions as well as give workshops and collaborate with other artists in different projects.

Artistic Director since 2020 is Mira Helenius Martinsson.
