Black Box
FACILITIES
The Black Box is suitable for performances and similar events.
The Black Box can be rented on a daily basis.
See pricing further down.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION (see technical rider at the bottom of the page)
The Black Box measures 13.5 m x 13.2 m, with a height of 5.9 m. Within the side walls, the dimensions are 10 x 10 m.
There is a large sound setup suitable for everything from rehearsals to major dance performances.
It is possible to play audio via Bluetooth or a mini-jack connection.
The Black Box can be fully darkened.
The stage is rented empty, with standard lighting and sound equipment as in the other rooms, without mirrors and, by default, without dance vinyl.
During certain periods, vinyl flooring may already be in place due to planning of other dance events. If it is already there, the renter does not have to pay for it. If the renter does not want the vinyl, they will not be charged to have it removed. There is no backstage or side stage.
If your event requires any technical equipment (e.g., microphones, projector, additional sound or lighting beyond standard hall lighting), this must be communicated at least 14 days before the event.
Technical staffing is arranged in consultation with Dansekapellet’s technical coordinator, Peter Løkke, at aj9i@kk.dk. Arrangements for technical assistance should ideally be included in the rental contract from the start. If the renter has their own technician, they must be approved by our technical manager to ensure proper handling of our equipment. If you do not have a technician, we can provide one familiar with the space.
Any additional equipment must always be approved by Peter Løkke in advance of the event.

BOOKING
Mail to yc3z@kk.dk
FRONT-OF-HOUSE STAFF
If there are more than 100 audience members, at least one front-of-house staff member must be booked.
When front-of-house staff are booked, Dansekapellet provides two employees, who will be present 1.5 hours before the performance starts to handle ticketing, audience management, and bar service on performance days.
During the performance, front-of-house staff also serve as ushers and restroom monitors. One staff member remains in the theatre to ensure that unauthorized persons do not enter the Black Box during the performance. The other staff member is inside the Black Box, guiding audience members to the restrooms without disturbing the performance.
When renting the Black Box, a cloakroom is available for audience use during the scheduled performance. The cloakroom is used at the guest’s own risk, but it is constantly supervised and/or locked during the performance by the front-of-house staff.
Front-of-house staff will also operate the Dansekapellet bar one hour before and 15 minutes after the performance.
In the event of a cancellation on the day of the performance, when front-of-house staff have been booked, they will still be present to inform any attendees of the cancellation.
DRESSING / GREEN ROOM
A smaller room is included when renting the Black Box, typically used as a dressing room, Green Room, or a lounge for performers.
The room includes:
- 2 tables and 8 chairs
- A makeup area with 3 chairs and wall-mounted mirrors
STUDIO 3/BACKSTAGE
Can be added to the rental and is typically used when a performance has many performers, if performers need space to warm up or rehearse, or for storing costumes, props, or similar items.
