Fractured Atlas has received a grant of $41,500 from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to enable its NYC Performing Arts Spaces program to conduct a study assessing rehearsal space needs and availability for professional, New York City-based, single-choreographer dance companies, with a focus on mid-career choreographers. The NYC Performing Arts Spaces study seeks to help solve a problem experienced particularly by these dance companies as they prepare for touring or New York City seasons. Optimally, these dance companies want consistent, affordable, well-located rehearsal space, but are not in an organizational or financial position to afford or maintain their own space. The study would examine the need and demand for rehearsal space among professional dance companies without their own rehearsal facilities, the barriers to the effective use of existing spaces, and the potential enhancements or changes in policy that could result in an increased supply or use of existing spaces. If warranted, the study would ascertain whether one or more new or renovated dedicated rehearsal facilities would serve the existing and projected space needs of dance companies.
