The body doesn't lie.

Not on stage and especially not in movement theatre.

Here, it's not about pretending, but all about being, about becoming.

The basic ingredients are your body, space, time and your imagination. In this course, we combine them with an experimental outlook on images, themes, sounds and group dynamics.

As a group, you will learn to sense the athmosphere, to react to eachothers movements and to create compsitions using viewpoints and other improvisation models.

You will throw yourself into movement and be surprised by what emerges on the spot and what we can build on to create exciting theatrical scenes. You will also discover your individual qualities as a dancer/player.

We plan to flirt with the boundaries between dance and theatre. Hence, this course is ideal for dancers who want to immerse themselves in theatre or players who want to increase their body awareness.

Practical

Wear clothes in which you can move freely. We move barefoot in this course. Bring a bottle of water.

Level of experience

Niveau X: for movers and players who feel like giving their all physically and crossing the line between dance and theatre.
