In November, the Dance Identity Festival took place at the Congress Center Eisenstadt, featuring both international productions and a showcase of artists currently in residence at D.iD. For our video report, we spoke with festival founder and director Liz King, dancer and choreographer Habib Ben Tanfous, as well as residents Maja Vidic and Sofiia Zeifert.

In the last two decades, Dance Identity (D.iD, founded in 2005 by Liz King) has established itself in Eisenstadt as one of Austria's leading choreography centers. It provides production facilities such as rehearsal spaces, office spaces, performance venues, mentoring, and access to an international network. D.iD supports emerging artists by assisting in the production of their works. This enables artists active in the Austrian scene to realize works in their early phases and increase their visibility. In addition to residencies, D.iD also hosts the Dance Identity Festival twice a year.
