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.
