Workshop description:

‘I realise that things have to be unfair because people are not human - but they could be a little less unfair. ‘Elisabeth in Faith Love Hope

How does the positive power of the ‘we’ develop into a tool of understanding, love and communication, of togetherness in a collective? Where does the ‘we’ become a polarising force against the ‘others’ and thus a populist instrument of power?

We work on the development of a project based on texts from the play ‘Faith, Love, Hope’ by Ödon von Horvàth and Ulrich Seidl's film ‘Paradise’ trilogy. selected dialogues and scenes for two, as well as self-written texts, which we develop in joint brainstorming and improvisation work, form the basis for the scenic realisation for the stage. Daily training for performance, voice, body and movement, as well as creative strategies that we can use artistically, but also in everyday life, are part of the four-day workshop, for all those who like to experience themselves playfully, and there will also be a presentation of the results of the work.

Please bring with you:

Comfortable clothes in which you can move well, water bottle, yoga mat and blanket for body and vocal exercises, writing materials for notes

Price:

€ 500,-

For many years, Aglaia Szyszkowitz appeared in front of the camera together with Friedrich von Thun in the TV series ‘Zimmer mit Stall’. ARD is currently broadcasting the series ‘Eine mit Herz’, formerly ‘Billy Kuckuck’, with the popular actress as a lively bailiff.)
