About us

Vision

Dance disrupts.
Tanzhaus Zürich is known far beyond the scene as a visionary place of creation. Together with our accomplices, we challenge rigidity and encourage our fellow human beings to be more present and connected.

Values

  • We meet our fellow human beings with an open heart and an alert mind. We act benevolently and empathetically, without allowing this to hinder our decision-making capacity.
  • We understand the world as a unity and act in the awareness that our today relies on a yesterday and determines our tomorrow. In this sense, we build sustainable relationships and promote socially effective ideas.
  • We strive for radical accessibility and see diversity as a strength, as we believe in the voice of the many. Curiosity and courage enable us to break new ground and learn from our mistakes – knowing that change is constant.
  • Physical practices and methods shape our daily work. We use and share this knowledge to ensure the well-being of the institution and to enrich society with it.
