FAMILYFEST 2024 | Workshops

Around the performances at FAMILYFEST 2024 | tanzfuchs PRODUKTION, children and their companions are invited to get themselves in motion:

In the contemporary dance workshop “Papierwelten” (“Paper Worlds”), there will be crackling and rustling, folding and crumpling, bending and shaping.

The “Knubbelsuppe” dance workshop takes children and their parents or companions straight into the Tohuwabohu (hullabaloo).

With the Singfingers you learn Christmas carols with gestures – sign language with fun for EVERYONE.

 

The workshops are free of charge! Find the full program here.

TOHUWABOHU | Arthur Schopa

TOHUWABOHU | Arthur Schopa

For families, life sometimes seems like a big hullabaloo – there are challenges everywhere! Whether it’s on the street, on the train, at school or at home, whether it’s due to school absences, staff shortages or the weather – chaos lurks everywhere. Parents have to take responsibility, while children hardly know what to do with their energy. Yet everyone would rather have fun and games than stress and frustration. In the dance theater production TOHUWABOHU, Arthur Schopa – father, choreographer and dancer – and his two sons, aged 5 and 8, bring their shared experiences in turbulent times to the stage. Through dance and movement, they tell of the challenges, the little moments of happiness and the colorful chaos of family life.

With Felix, Louis & Arthur Schopa // Idea, direction & choreography: Arthur Schopa // Music: Jörg Ritzenhoff // Outside-Eye: Barbara Fuchs // Lighting: Wolfgang Pütz

TOHUWABOHU is part of FAMILYFEST 2024 | tanzfuchs PRODUKTION.

KEIN ENDE | Carla Jordão with Sônia Mota

KEIN ENDE | Carla Jordão with Sônia Mota

KEIN ENDE is the fourth performance in our guest performance series LOOK for Dance and Diversity 2024 and embodies special moments in the life of 76-year-old artist Sônia Mota. She states: “(…) in the current decade of my life, my mind is beginning to adapt to my body.” Her way of expressing herself in dance has become more relaxed for her. She reflects: “ The need to physically move faster has reduced, my soul has also calmed down. And so my dance has become much more intimate and essential over time.” In her solo, the dancer shows how life cycles complement and renew each other.
