About
TOASTER is a collaboration between Husets Teater and Den Frie Centre of Contemporary Art in Copenhagen. Each year, TOASTER curates a program comprising companies and stage artists from Denmark and abroad that experiment with formats and contribute to the development of the performing arts.
TOASTER is both a home and a driving force for art at the crossroads of theater, performance and the visual arts, where artists have great artistic freedom in the realization of their works.
TOASTER promotes increased internationalization by re-establishing Copenhagen as part of a flow of international guest performances and networking between self-producing groups, collaborative scenes and art institutions abroad.

International network
Toaster is member of the Nordic performing arts network Yggdrasil and member of the steering committee.
Yggdrasil was founded during the pandemic to strengthen ties between performing arts institutions and independent groups in the Nordic areas, and to promote innovation within the sector by sharing knowledge and best practices between professionals. By acting as a connecting platform, Yggdrasil also promotes collaboration between members, currently counting some 60 performing arts professionals.
In 2023 Yggdrasil received a 3-year grant from the Nordic Culture Point, which enables the development of the network and helps fund online and onsite workshops and assemblies. During the grant period Yggdrasil is coordinated by Hålogaland Teater (Tromsø, Norway) with an operational coordinator situated in Helsinki, Finland.
