Performing Perspectives - talking about others

By Daniel Wetzel

Berlin, Haus der Berliner Festspiele
02. – 04.06.2024

Practical Workshop at the Theatertreffen der Jugend / Campus

 

How can we as artists deal appropriately with challenging and sensitive topics on stage? How can we deal with historical conflicts, injustices, wars, abuses and atrocities in an empathetic and responsible way through performance?

In this workshop, we will conduct research, seek dialogue with experts, go on an excursion to an unusual place and try to develop our own small scenes that reflect these topics in an artistic and empathetic way. We will be inspired by the work of Rimini Protokoll and other performance groups in order to explore the different approaches and techniques we can learn from them.

All disciplines are welcome and no specific prior knowledge is required.
