POETRY IN SPACE

9-14 August 2023

PERFORMANCE PROGRAMME | PARTICIPANTS' PROGRAMME

A work in progress to share?

Work in progress will be shared by participants and invited artists at POETRY IN SPACE – Theatre Women Composition.

Poetry reaches out to the essence. It demands imagination, creativity, rhyme, music, words which open horizons, communication, not necessarily understanding, blood flowing in the body and the rhythms of nature.

Poetry in Action is theatre in its broadest meaning. It transforms ideas into scenes. It creates images in the minds of the spectators. It gives rigour to the craft and surprising outcomes to the results.

Actors and directors compose actions, improvisations, characters, texts, songs, performances. Structures used by other artists (poets, musicians, therapists, singers, producers, painters...) are useful inspiration. Composition is a tool which accompanies the paths of artistic discovery.

With: Anne Savage (Denmark), Brigitte Cirla (France), Dorthe Kærgaard (Denmark), Else Marie Laukvik (Norway), Geddy Aniksdal (Norway), Julia Varley (UK/Denmark), Katrine Faber (Denmark), Luciana Bazzo (Brazil), Rina Skeel (Argentina), Ulrik Skeel (Denmark)
