Alongside the show Makom, the Vertigo dance company invites you into its world through a contemporary dance workshop.
Based on the connection between the body and the laws of nature, the company uses the principles of tai chi and qigong to gently strengthen each person’s physical capacities. The approach of Noa Wertheim, Vertigo’s choreographer and artistic director, encourages interpersonal communication and interaction with the environment. The company also promotes community involvement through various initiatives such as the Vertigo Dance School founded in 1997, the Vertigo Eco Art Village on Kibbutz Netiv Halamed-Heh, and The Power of Balance programme, promoting the inclusion of people with disabilities.
The workshop is open to everyone, no previous experience is required.
Looking inwards and turning outwards – this is the balancing act upon which interdisciplinary artist Sascha Ley embarks in her own creation Cosmos (Not Enough). Ley showcases every facet of her tremendous talent in order to tackle the great existential questions: who are we in this world, and what sort of person do our social conventions make of us? Venturing into impressively creative territory, she contemplates inwardness, perception and memory, love and lust, erotic attraction and gender identities. A convergence of movement and words, the lyrical collages in Ley’s performance meet installations of video and light, courtesy of artist Krischan Kriesten.
Around The Game – Grand Finale, take part in a contemporary dance workshop for all levels.
Led by Jill Crovisier, this workshop explores the choreography and themes of the show by focusing on physical expression. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in improvisation exercises designed to stimulate creativity and body awareness.
Shakespeare, time and time again! The English dramatist is a permanent fixture in the canon of world literature – and Daddy Issues attacks this status head-on. Its diagnosis: too white, too masculine, too royalist and (today) wordily elitist. Blending music with drama, looking for ways to come to terms with Shakespeare, theatre’s unabating patriarch, the cast and crew stand up to this behemoth of the stage, hoping eventually to come to terms with him. Gathering in a shut-down movie theatre, they bicker and play and sing their frustrations away, unleashing before the public’s eyes a disinhibited, mercurial universe drawn from Shakespeare’s oeuvre. Things are about to get serious, raucous, critical, and also very loud.
An introduction to the event will take place at 7.15 pm before the second show.
Strobe Lighting effects will be used during this performance.
Après plusieurs spectacles et créations qui ont rencontré un véritable succès, PATE est de retour avec un nouveau spectacle TRANSITION. Un spectacle pensé pour notre époque, mêlant théâtre, danse, musique, chant et poésie. Un projet artistique qui explore les mutations de notre société la place de l’humain, le choc des générations, l’intelligence artificielle, les émotions programmées et les libertés contrôlées. Tout au long de l’année, les jeunes artistes ont exploré les arts de la scène pour interroger ce monde en pleine transition. Résultat : un spectacle fort, drôle, touchant, dérangeant parfois, mais surtout profondément vivant. Un miroir scénique de notre époque.
Permettre aux jeunes de découvrir le spectacle vivant par la pratique artistique, telle est la raison d’être de PATE. Mis en scène par Saïf Eddine Settif et encadré par l’éducatrice Cindy Rodrigues, ce projet éducatif et participatif prend la forme d’un atelier hebdomadaire au cours duquel les participant·es se familiarisent avec les arts de la scène. Ils et elles explorent les domaines de la danse, du chant, de la musique, de la comédie, des arts du cirque ou des arts graphiques et plastiques. Au fil de l’année, ce groupe approfondit les techniques du théâtre, de l’écriture à l’improvisation, pour créer un véritable spectacle joué en fin d’année scolaire au Escher Theater.
The dancers from the Paradox-sal collective, who perform One Shot, will be giving an introduction to house dance. This workshop is an opportunity to share in the energy of the show and discover the basics of this dance born in the clubs.
Did you give your clothes a rough time? During this workshop, nothing will resist your creative mind to re(pair) your used clothes and rekindle the affective bond with a pair of jeans or an old sock that you no longer dared to take out from the wardrobe.
Bring your clothes, costume designer Peggy Wurth will be there to make fabrics available and pass on those gestures: darning, patching, fixing a tear, sewing a button, hemming. One thing leading to another, our associate artist will dispense advice and techniques to make clothes more durable, and doing so always in a creative manner!
The workshop will take place on 12 January from 10am to 1pm and/or from 2pm to 5pm, at the Ariston. You can attend both workshops for twice the fun of repairing your clothes! Between 1pm and 2pm, there will be a short lunch break with sandwiches, it’s on the house.
