Content: Our theme is the presentation and experience of techniques and methods of contemporary dance and theatre for adults who are interested in them and who are active in the life of their local communities. We are expecting 20 foreign and 8 Hungarian learners. During the first program parts, learners get to know simple, easy-to-adapt dance and theatre techniques, that they are able to use alone in similar community activities and with the aim to present, raise awareness and process themes that are actual in the lives of their communities. In the meantime we also work with themes that are equally important for individuals and communities, such as handling prejudice, basics of communication and cooperation, tolerance towards and active inclusion of different social, cultural groups and generations.
