15. 10., 16 do 19pm @ &TD theatre, big hall Metal aerobics is an invention from the Shalala workshop where dark energy is juxtaposed with extreme positive energy almost fake. It’s borrowing the form of a fitness class or aerobics, something that most people recognize and this makes it easy for everybody to enter into. Those two extremes juxtaposing constantly using simple steps and breathing out load, the repetition and the extreme simple movements, breathing, ending in a scream makes you experience an extreme liberation for a moment and that feeling lasts throughout the day along with a dash of neck muscle pain. We will do black yoga screaming exercises, metal aerobics and other wonderful and liberating stuff. We will say hello to our demons and think of different ways to cast them out, inventing unusual healing ritual by doing basic stuff like cleaning our house but in a rhytmical screaming and head banging dance. We will create our own private invisible almost completely sound proof black yoga screaming chamber but we will scream together out of joy, out of anger, out of frustration, to forget, to get energised, to get relaxed, scream all our problems away, scream for no particular reason at all. This might be a live saying experience…...

11. and 12.10. 18 to 21pm te 14. and 16.10. 17 to 20pm @ SC (SC Gallery and &TD theatre) In order to produce a work which moves towards integrality non-violently taking into account all the givens, we need to go back to motivation, structure, composition and dramaturgy – elementary concepts which get mixed up, but which we cannot do without. Lead by the theatre director Nataša Rajković, a six-day-long workshop will consist of conversations, presentations and individual consultations. Participants will have a chance to meet with Croatian artists and experts. The focus of the workshop will be on the special needs of participants’ own projects. During the workshop, they will be able to develop their ideas by means of individual consultations and/ or practically test them in the Student Center’s facilities. What we are talking about, preceded by thinking why are we talking about that, why that in particular? You have to deal with this on your own and if you resolve that question, you are on the right way to take your performance where it needs to go.— Nataša Rajković (Kazalište #53/54.)

Have you ever screamed your rage out and what does it want to say? What happens after the rage leaves the body? In this class we practice embodiment of anger and rage through dance, voice and body-oriented psychotherapy exercises. Learning to ground, express and integrate the anger without becoming overwhelmed by it. What were the early experiences of our anger and how was it accepted or rejected by our primary caretakers? How was anger expressed in my family? What are the beliefs that shaped my attitude towards anger? In this class we explore our personal history of rage, through dance, movement, ritual theatre and body-oriented psychotherapy exercises. Classes are open to dancers with any levels of experience. Even though we create a safe lab for exploration, please be aware that the classes will be loud, possibly emotional, with intense movements. Enesa Mahić trained in body psychotherapy, dance and trauma work, she’s been working with groups and individuals for almost 15 years....

You can’t suppress your ideas anymore or else you will explode? Well, we can help you with the four day workshop at this year’s Ganz festival. The focus of the workshop is divided in two parts: -creative process or: what is and what is not a good idea, developing of the idea -writing and recording a song together + how to perform a poem and transfer the creative impulse to the audience. First two days we will try to do Platon’s work (somewhat easier than Sysiphus’!) and turn ideas into chords and texts, and on the last two days we will record the song and deal with her life after the recording. If we make a hit song, there’s a surprise for all participants of the workshop. Edo Maajka is a well-known rapper, record producer and...
