Program series NachWieVor

dance performance & age(ing)

As part of the networking and exchange project NachWieVor | dance performance & age(ing), curated by Barbara Fuchs and Silke Z., we are looking forward to the participatory AudioWalk by the ensemble DanceOn60+ from Munich. Together with artists, scientists and our intergenerational audience, we would like to take a look at age(ing) in this series.

DANCE ON 60+ GEHT RAUS

Introductory workshop with AudioWalk in public space with Andrea Marton (Munich)

Put on your headphones and dance away! DanceOn60+ gets the audience moving: People of all ages are invited to enter into a dance dialogue with each other and with the urban space through the AudioWalk. Each person separately and yet together, the participants are guided through the AudioWalk and Dance with headphones. Andrea Marton’s concept underlines her concern to enable the cultural participation of all people.

STADTFÜCHSE

In September, the FELD Theatre for Young Audiences (Berlin) is a guest in the NachWieVor programme series.

The research STADTFÜCHSE uses the figure of the fox as a mythical creature to not only deal with the demarcation between humans and animals, but also philosophises and fabulates musically, dancingly and figuratively above all about being human in itself and the relationship of humans to their environment.

BLÜHENDE LANDSCHAFTEN

For the third event in the NachWieVor programme series, we will be hosting the AltentanzTheater Ensemble ZARTBITTER in October.

Together with Lisa Thomas, the artist Justyna Koeke and the choreographer/dancer Pascal Sangl, ZARTBITTER 2022 has embarked on a research. The ensemble moves in the interplay of body, dance and living material: flowers and plants. The installative-choreographic performance adapts to the respective location and thus becomes a unique experience again and again. The ensemble under the artistic direction of Lisa Thomas was founded in 2010 from a group of older people with a special passion for dance theatre.

Choreography: Lisa Thomas, Pascal Sangl Costume: Justyna Koeke Dance: Marion Koch, Roswitha Münchbach, Lilo Mohaupt, Stefan Mohr-Bender, Helmut Rumpf-Hufnagel, Hildegard Schäffler, Gabriele Würch, Eva Schwanitz, Sebastian Hettenkofer, Hans Nau, Renate Denzel

Production: Tanz- und Theaterwerkstatt e.V., the City of Ludwigsburg and the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts of the State of Baden-Württemberg

Funded by: The project research was supported by Fonds Darstellende Künste with funds from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media as part of NEUSTART KULTUR.

THE DISTANT BODY

Dance research labs with people 60+

As part of the multi-year artistic stage, outreach and research project THE EMPATHIC BODY by choreographer Silke Z. and her ensemble die metabolisten, four dance labs for the generation 60+ will be offered in 2021 under the title THE DISTANT BODY.

The effects of the Corona pandemic, especially the distance regulations have changed the (performance) world. The use of Zoom etc. to “work further” in art assigns a new meaning to the body and the question of distance. Especially for the older generation, the awareness of distance has changed. What does distance mean today? Distance from one’s own body? What effects does distance have on movement? How do these developments affect relationships? What does social distancing mean in life, in old age and in a stage context?

In the laboratory situations, the participants research these questions in solos, duos and groups together with the choreographer and selected ensemble members for a week and bring the results to the stage of the ehrenfeldstudios in a final performance.

***In addition to the lab weeks, rehearsal and performance visits are planned as part of the ensemble’s artistic productions***

FUNDING

The project is funded by the Cultural Office of the City of Cologne, the Förderfonds Kultur und Alter of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia with the Ministry of Culture and Science of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia (stage and research), Fonds Darstellende Künste (stage) and the Rheinenergie Stiftung Kultur (mediation). In cooperation with the theatre and media class of the Albertus Magnus Gymnasium, Cologne, Junges Schauspielhaus Bochum and Fokus Tanz, Munich.

The laboratory series THE DISTANT BODY is funded by the Förderfonds Kultur und Alter des Landes NRW.

Various adjectives of the first-person alphabet also found their way into the auditorium for the showing in September.

Who are WE (all)?

Due to Ccorona, the spectators were (unfortunately) not allowed to choose their seats. Would you rather have seat on a different chair?
