Over 900,000 viewers were attracted to the eight dance films commissioned by the Arts Council and RTÉ’s Dance on the Box initiative and premiered on RTÉ television during Dublin Dance Festival in 2006 and 2008. Also screened in the open air in Meeting House Square, Temple Bar, the films went on to travel to festivals in Africa, Australia, Europe, South America and the USA.

Following up on that success, the Arts Council and RTÉ are delighted to come together again for a third season of RTÉ Dance on the Box. Four short films have been commissioned, by the choreographer/director teams of David Bolger & Conor Horgan, Cindy Cummings & Oonagh Kearney, Fearghus Ó Conchúir & Dearbhla Walsh and John Scott & Steve Woods.
