THE ART OF PROTEST (BEGINNERS)

The Art of Protest (Beginners) invites you to experiment with theatrical means and forms of protest. Together with ASJA & Jonathan Schmidt-Colinet you will venture into public protest, get to know experts from the activist and theater scene and design, rehearse and discuss creative contributions for public expression. On six Saturdays from September 2022 to February 2023 we will deal with theatrical means (costume, voice, props, etc.), learn about the practices of invited protest experts and about historical examples of different forms of protest. Based on this, we will develop protest contributions and then try them out in public space until the next meeting; for example, with a poster for a climate strike, a choir against police violence, a costume for affordable housing or a dance for bodily self-determination... Welcome are people of all ages who are looking for an approach to co-design in public space and want to get involved against nationalistic, sexist, or racist positions.

Participation is free of charge, registration at: https://2022-23.implantieren-festival.de/de/practice/art-of-protest-beginners/
