Love Songs for kids from 13 years of age
This workshop is taking place from July 25 until August 5!
In The Name Of Love, All You Need Is Love, Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing, She Loves You, Yeah Yeah Yeah!
Love. It always has been a huge inspiration for all art forms. Music, film, literature, theatre – in most cases it is all about love.
But how do we dance love? Or rather: how do we show love?
Do we radiate love, or do we show it in little gestures and acknowledgements? Do we need it, or can we not do without it? Why is it, that many sorts of love are denied in such incredibly fierce, sometimes even aggressive ways?
And is love always bound to another person?
Love as the motor of being... is that true?
In this workshop choreographer Ives Thuwis will work together with the participants on the vaunted and cursed phenomenon called love. The aim is to create a short performance within this two weeks. The material will originate from the own experiences, opinions and memories of the participants. Ives Thuwis will facilitate the theatrical realisation ofthese gathered elements and cast them into a performance which will be shown to an interested audience.
Everyone between 13 and 20 years of age is welcome who have already dealt with this topic and dance/movement. Dance experience is not required, but a lot of energy, curiosity and desire for movement and this topic.
