Theatre and Circus Culture in Motion
arco - Erlebnispädagogik e.V.
Wiesbaden, Saksa
Kuvaus
This is a 2-month Erasmus+ Volunteering Team Project and brings together 15 young volunteers from across Europe for an immersive experience in theatre, circus, and movement arts. Participants will alternate between training phases and hands-on support in creative projects with children. In addition to facilitating playful, expressive experiences for children, volunteers will also co-create a theatre-circus performance around contemporary European and global themes. The resources include Physical Theatre, Modern Circus, and Expression in Movement & Art. Practices such as Feldenkrais, yoga, and impulse resonance learning provide meditative and bodily awareness tools. The entire process functions as a collaborative movement laboratory and will end in a final performance by the volunteering team. It is possible to prolong the stay by taking part in intercultural youth project "Expression in Movement and Art" on the Wiesbaden camp site.
