Dance with Things: The Plastic Waste

Workshop with Stefanie Schwimmbeck

In this workshop, we will interact with plastic waste through dance and learn how to deal with it creatively and sustainably. We will explore the imaginative use of an everyday material in an alienated way. We learn to draw ideas from our own creativity and implement them in dance. In this way, the group can develop its own personal dance material, which offers each child the opportunity to develop and identify themselves. There will be a mixture of age-appropriate tasks ranging from partner and group work to improvisations and short predetermined movement sequences.


Please bring clean plastic waste such as, for example, an oatmeal bag!
