Synagieren Wirkcamp 2014

In addition to a Scientific Theatre Workshop, we presented various scenes on the “Cost of Food” at the Wirkcamp 2014 in Freiburg on 1st May. The event was organized by an initiative called “Synagieren – Initiative für Gemeinsames Handeln” and more than 160 students & practitioners from all around Germany participated. The performance was videotaped and we are currently working on the editing. The scenes developed by the participants of the Scientific Theatre Workshop are published on the Wirkcamp’s website within the next weeks.

Scientific Theatre Workshop at Wirkcamp 2014

At the Wirkcamp 2014 from 1.-4. May 2014 in Freiburg we offered a scientific theatre workshop. The event was organized by an initiative called “Synagieren – Initiative für Gemeinsames Handeln” and students & practitioners from all around Germany were invited to participate.

During the two days of the workshop we shared our experience of how to use theatre as a tool for communicating policy and scientific debates on sustainability. We introduced some basic theatre exercises that then enabled us to playfully and interactively deal with sustainability issues and start a dialogue amongst ourselves and the environment. During the two days, we collectively found common themes that we were interested in to develop short scenes which we combine into a small piece.
