Genre Other World on the MOVE related workshop for artist professionals
By Alfredo Zinola/ Kage Mulvilai
Country Germany-Thai
Duration 90 minutes
Suitable for Professionals
Capacity 20 people
The artists will share the tools and reflections they collected from the experience of their collaboration as two different artists. To develop "Other World on the Move", Alfredo and Kage decided to concentrate on contexts: their backgrounds, one European, one Southeast-Asian, and the environment of a school classroom, different from that of a theatre.
A creation starts with questions: What does it mean to bring theatre into a school? Is it an act of imposition to invade a school with theater? How are we as artists aware of what a school is and what it represents? Is it a generalization to define how a child might like or not like a performance? Which tools are we bringing to the creative process of a new performance?
In the virtual space of a workshop the two artists wish to encounter other professionals to share the considerations and strategies they've found.
This workshop is supported by the International Co-production Fund of the Goethe-Institut, as well as the NATIONALES PERFORMANCE NETZ International Guest Performance Fund for Dance which is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media.
Notes to participants:
We will ask you to move and to speak.
We decided to make this year’s festival free-of-charge not because we are fully funded, but we wanted to reach as far as we could to all children, families and schools across communities and continents. If you like our work and your circumstance permits, please consider making a donation. Your generous support will help keep the arts for children and young people alive.
