In April 2026, Toaster presents Denmark’s first international performance biennale, taking place across Den Frie and Husets Teater.
The biennale offers a current portrait of the performance field within both visual art and performing arts – and the many intersections between them – which are rapidly evolving nationally as well as internationally. The focus is state of the art: taking the temperature of the field right now.
Experience 27 performances, including 12 entirely new works created specifically for the biennial. The artists range from established performance practitioners to emerging talents.
The programme encompasses works rooted in dance, text, costume, sound, light, music, and space. Performance is here and now – it is the time we live in, and the time we choose to spend together.
