workshop led by Nenad Čolić, PLAVO theatre director

Participants will be introduced into ideological principles of work through series of exercises aimed at exploring of the meeting point between theatre and ritual, discovering theatre as a personal space and space of human experience, researching of individual archetypes as precondition for creation. The work aims to reveal possibilities for deeper levels of communication in theatre, emphasising free individual existence inside of specific conditions of theatre as a collective space, by discovering ecstatic capacities of human being and overcoming of personal obstructions, such are fears, shame or prejudices, which burden human communication even in everyday life.

In addition to practical exercises, the work will also consist of lectures, discussions, video projections of representative performances and documentary material from the history of contemporary theatre.
