A&S Space travellers is a performance with parents and child for intergenerational audiences. It is a scenic proposal that aims to generate empathy, fantasy, dialogue and communication, within a fantastic Martian universe. The performers build an unknown place filed with volumes, circles, and spheres. Beings from another planet come to visit this world to interact and play with terrestrials. It is a surreal work with plastic and pictorial magic created through objects, dance, the relationship with technology, and audience participation.

This is an intergenerational and inclusive dance performance by choreographer Silke Z., from Cologne, Germany.

What new representation and embodiment of being a diva can succeed in this day and age, when bling-bling and social media divas are part of our commercialized everyday lives? Where are our personal, fantastical beings hiding, whose presence is irresistible and wild? In this workshop, through movement work and imaginative tasks, we will create space to explore our personal divas. The workshop is aimed at anyone who is interested in their (inner) divas and requires no prior knowledge of diva life.

A person in an empty space full of touchscreens tries to connect with the world outside through the looking glass, to feel, to sense, to hold and to touch. He navigates himself and searches for his voice in a world where screens control his life and tell him where to go and when he arrived at his destination, entering a technological wonderland.
A solo performance for an isolated performer that explores the relation between the individual and the society in a changing world, and examines the interaction between the body and the screen through the sense of touch.
