Statutes
The Dansens Hus Foundation was founded in 1991 by the Royal Opera, Riksteatern, Göteborgsoperan, Skånes Dansteater, Danscentrum, Dansmuseet and Östgötateatern. The purpose of the Dansens Hus Foundation is, according to its statutes, to develop dance and related art forms without its own production by organising and enabling public performances.
