Come and learn about postdramatic performance and puppet theater. In the one week workshop led by Kata Csató, Helga Lázár and Stefanie Oberhoff we use Germany-based methods of the aformentioned art forms. You will learn about theory, and you can also try yourself out in the art forms.
You will see and participate in the making of Money Maus for FREESZFE, a political-action art performance. You will also be abel to make your own, local specific political action. The performance will be performed at the Money Maus Rave Party. This way, you will not only learn about theater and performance, but about communication, event-planning and photo and video documentation as well.
Also, during the workshop you will use abstract thinking methods, from the planning to the actualization of a project.
