The 11-member jury for the prize announced the winners in February and decided to allow the winners a showcase for their talents on five consecutive evenings in May. The awards will be presented after the last evening?s performance at the MU Theatre, at 10:00pm on May 7.
Rudolf Lábán (1878-1958) was among the most important innovators of modern dance in Europe. He was born in Bratislava, then a part of Austria-Hungary, and spent much of his youth in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Lábán set up the Choreographic Institute in Zürich in 1915 and later founded branches in Italy, France and Central Europe. His greatest contribution to dance was his 1928 publication of Kinetographie Laban, a dance notation system that came to be called Labanotation and is still used as one of the primary movement notation systems in dance.
