This program is designed for everyone who wants to explore their own voice, without the pressure of performing, or for those that want to try out their acting skills and to embark on new paths. We experiment with the voice and make fun side trips into different musical eras and genres. There will be improvisation and development of short scenes as we illuminate the comedy and tragedy of human relationships. We’ll also attend rehearsals at the Opernhaus and go to a performance together.

open space tanz offers space for those who wish to engage with dance, independent of technique and pace. This weekly workshop is aimed at people who want to experiment, improvise, and create.
