Dear friends, we can finally share with you a joyful and long-awaited event!
We are opening DEREVO Art House in Dresden in May. It is the public school of Anton Adasinsky, the founder of Derevo theatre.
Of course, we needed time to put the huge amount of archive material into a system, to build up a training system. We are currently planning two intensive courses a year. And a large number of homework assignments. As well as continuing to work with laboratory participants online.
The 6-day intensive laboratory in May 2023 will focus on the personal inner opening of each participant. Analysing their creative path, identifying problems and finding ways to solve them. Working with the stage experience and finding the most progressive creative development for each participants.
in the programme:
- Work with the body, the intellect and emotions.
- Work with Derevo's photos and video archives.
- Work with musical instruments and the Derevo sound archive.
- Structure of the performance.
- Fundamentals of music education; rhythm and musical grammar.

Also planned attendance of pedagogues:
On 20th May there will be an open show-improvisation at the St. Pauli Kirche at 2 p.m.(Theaterruine St. Pauli, Dresden) based on the results of the Laboratory.
Derevo exercises created by Anton during the entire existence of the theatre. Working with the body, emotions, intellect, rhythm. Dance techniques, fantasy exercises, which is one of the most important themes in Derevo's work.
CREATION OF PROPS, COSTUME, MASKs./elena yarovaya
The actress and teacher Elena Yarovaya is the author and designer of scenery and costumes for almost all DEREVO works, as well as the author of the Light Partitory for several DEREVO theatre productions.
"....You create a character on stage: How will you dress the character? Where will he live ? Quickly making a temporary version of the costume and scenography is the key for the success of a performance design. This is designer's aikido - don't go against the material. The magic of unnecessary things". Elena Yarovaya.
Daniel Williams - 2 lectures about performance and theatre music.
Daniel is a composer who has written a large amount of music for Derevo Theatre shows.
Teacher Anton Adasinsky will elaborate on the topic of street performance or in non-theatrical spaces. At the end of this session, participants may have the opportunity to perform under the sky. This will be decided during the workshop. A selection of Derevo's street actions is here.
