WORKSHOP: SUITCASEBOARDING

The workshop with the creators of SUITCASEBOARDING invites participants to explore their possibilities of movement and relationships both within public space and their personal space.

SUITCASEBOARDING

What happens while you wait for a connection? You listen to music or dance? You look around, feel the need to make contact with other passengers or are you trying to hide and impatiently waiting for the connection? Are you leaning on your suitcase? The tYhle group shares their travelling moments with you as they make their way to you.

WORKSHOP: MELANCHOLIC MARATHON

In this workshop, Cindy Hammer from the go plastic company offers insights into her movement research and the process of developing MELANCHOLIC MARATHON.

UN AMOR ODER DIE ERFINDUNG MEINER MUTTER UN AMOR | OR THE INVENTION OF MY MOTHER

It all starts on a Friday. The mother goes flamenco dancing. She takes her daughter with her. The daughter watches her mother, marvelling, admiring, seeing a strong, independent woman.

OFF EUROPA: I PSYCHI TIS ANTIGONIS - THE SOUL OF ANTIGONE

This impressively intense (concentrated, loud, physical) play focuses on Virginia Woolf's thoughts on feminism and pacifism, crossed with Sophocles' ancient model play Antigone.

OFF EUROPA: MINING STORIES

A theatrical investigation into a serious environmental disaster that occurred near the Brazilian city of Mariana in 2015. A synthesis of witness voices, economic considerations and reflections on the categorisation of memories.

OFF EUROPA: OLD POND

A wonderfully fluid dance performance about habitats, (co-)existence and survival. The dancers become creatures of all kinds in an imaginary body of water.

OFF EUROPA: VZDUCH (AIR)

A playful, magically twisted play that criticises the actions or inactions of Western people as well as a general carelessness in dealing with resources and the natural environment.
