PINA BAUSCH ZENTRUM @ BOB CAMPUS

How do people get into storytelling and who listens to them? Which (life) stories are heard and which voices are drowned out? How do we give space to those who are often rendered speechless? And how can we reinvent storytelling as an age-old custom between people?

We are creating an open studio for art and movement in the Nachbarschaftsetage of the BOB CAMPUS. Here we will explore how we can deal with our own stories in a self-determined way and express them through painting, photography, dance, video and sound technology. This creates a free space for creativity, individual decisions and togetherness.

In the autumn holidays there will be a special workshop in the theatre from 21.–27.10.24, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Before and after the autumn vacation, we also meet every Sunday from 1:30 to 5 p.m. in the Nachbarschaftsetage at BOB CAMPUS. Learn more
During the regular Sunday sessions, the children work together on a performance, which will be presented on 23.03.25 and 30.03.25.

The painter, dancer and choreographer Milton Camilo, the media artist Nara Bak and other artists will lead the workshop and enable an encounter with different media and art forms. The workshop is organized by the Pina Bausch Centre, BOB Campus and Dunua e.V.

Please register for the workshop by sending your name, age, e-mail and telephone number to xenia.wachtel@pinabauschzentrum.de. The participation is free!
