Organization:<\/strong> Kolektiv Igralke and Ulysses Theatre<\/p>\n

Workshop plan and program:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Overloaded by jobs, work, information, technology, modern-day multitasking we confront the question; What is Overload? How do we deal with it, do we recognize it and do we acknowledge it within ourselves and others?
\nIn this Workshop, far-off the land and the stimuli which cause the overload, on an inhabited island with plenty of scent, taste and sound we will be searching for the presence and the meaning of the ideas ”here” and ”now”. Overload is a topic which is philosophically and practically supported by the method of improvisation, bringing the performers and the audience together in the common quest towards the solutions for the contradictory reality which we are all part of. By creating music, exploring the wilderness and theatrical improvisational scenes we try to answer the question: What remains when the overload is gone?
\nThe programme consists of workshops with daily duration of 6 hours; 1 hours of morning yoga, 2 hours of music-related work – practical work combined with research on a given topic and 3 hours of interdisciplinary work through music and improvisational theatre, with the starting and focal topic: ”Overload”<\/p>\n


\nSound and music research with Damir Urban (2 hours)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sound and music workshop led by the famous Croatian musician and visual artist Damir Urban will be concentrated towards creating musical instruments made out of natural materials, recording and composing sounds using the conventional but also an underwater (hydrophonic) recorder and loops. Sounds designed and recorded by the workshop group will be used as musical background for the theatre improvisations created on the second part of the workshop.<\/p>\n


\nImprovisational theatre with Pauline Calm\u00e9 (3 hours)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Led by French improvisational actress, pedagogue and director Pauline Calme, also addresses the ‘Overload’ topic, using the improvisational theatre techniques and tools. The duration of this part of the workshop is four hours a day. The goal of the workshop, next to learning new tools of research and creating is also designing and performing individual and group improvisational acts. The knowledge and experience provided by the workshop itself becomes a tool which can later be used in scenic and performing creations. The tools of the improvisational theatre help the performer in the creation process but are also applicable and useful in daily life.
\nImprovisation itself opens up the space of imagination, and can lead us to new ideas which are full of new, creative energy. It also teaches us to trust our own feelings; it teaches about presence, about perceiving the sensations around us and allowing them to enter our being.
\nThe workshop program, along with the ”Overload” idea, emphasizes the importance of ecology and reconnecting with nature, which in its essence is the complete opposite of overload and represents simplicity, harmony and peace.<\/p>\n
