A seminar that is outside one’s everyday environment might be a good space for this. Methods that involve all our senses and a broad range of possibilities for expression support this exploration. When participants are thinking creatively, they are able to combine diverse thinking styles and experiences to come up with new or unusual solutions. Methods might encoruage new connections, address convergent and divergent thinking modes and allow a group to experience creativity together</div> |

| − | Theatre reflects the reality and shows us different points of views and interpretations of life. At the same time, theatre is always reflection for the actors as well as for the audience, no matter if played in a official theatre, on the street or in a classroom. The audience recognizes themselves in the magical space that is shown on stage. By changing the perspective, actors can recognize stereotypical behaviours easier and thus find alternative ways of acting in problematic situations. This way theatre can help to clarify situations in a playful manner.

| − | In addition to that the playful and unconscious way of dealing with the foreign language helps to overcome inhibitions to speak or to present oneself during the seminar. Acting and laughing together creates an atmosphere of trust. Finally, fun and a good feeling for the group are important things for every seminar.

| − | In order to be able to use the different ways of expression which the theatre offers, the participants have to make their body able to express itself and therefore they have to know their body very well. Only at this stage different forms of theatre can be used and the participants can leave step by step the audience and become actors themselves. This is the only way how participants cab become subjects instead of objects and develop from witness of a happening to protagonists. This development from spectator to actor happens in different phases. The introduction to theatre is therefore exercise and experiment with the own Body.

| − | Workshops with stencil art, photgraphy, radio or texts, they offer with very different media a possibility for expression. In our context it is the artistic expression regarding a societal relevant topic. Creativity starts with perception. Creative workshops help people that are used to work often cognitive, to perceive the people and environment different. Sometimes in creative activity we experience something new. The material, the body experience, the communication without words.

| − | Creativity can be applied under cognitive sounding topics, in international encounters, but as well in school or non_formal education. Our experience is, that participants gain a lot from having the opportunity to express (or learn to express) in a variety of media and "languages".

| − | Creative workshops can be integrated in another training like a 1-2 day part. Or be conducted as single event. In any case creativity needs space - appropriate facilitations.
| |
| | | | |
| − | Also important is the presentation of the products: a play, a vernissage, performance, a newspaper or blog.

| − | In example the international training "A stroke in the landscape, the border in your mind" in the German-Polish border region. The first days were following the goals of getting to know each other and of work on the topic "border". Therefore we had discussions in the seminar but as well field trips like to the border patrol.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The following days the faciltators' team offered four workshops: radio, stencil art, creative writing and drama. The connecting element between them was a joint performance which should present the outcome of the creative process on the central place of the city. The public performance addressed several competencies that are as well relevant for further public involvement: Standing in the public, involving other people, experience yourself in a challenging situation, or teamwork.

| − | SPACE_r. is a kind of performance about walking (spacer in polish) and discovering a different way of seeing and using public spaces. An audience is taking part in series of instructions proposed by the performers, exploring the city as a space of action. These instructions are both local-based, and site-specific, influenced from environments and needs.

| − | This work is an example of thinking about a theatre as an experience based adventure and showing the power of participatory audience.
| |
| − | It is based on Guy Debord’s conception of the capturing and the driftage as a way of fight against commercialization. By puncturing the space we re-give the ownership of the city to its inhabitants. The city, as a concept, will be changed into polis – the political community with the full rights, duties and access in the public space.
| |
| − | Aristotle said that “The city is created by different people, and without it is not possible even to imagine”. Performeria is not afraid of different points of view, conflicts, pressure groups. That understanding of “the political” is corresponding with Chantal Mouffe’s concept. In that sense, they are creating political interventions in urban spaces.
| |
| − | The collecting of material to the SPACE_r is an ethnographical process – field-work, possible in relation with inhabitants by providing and creating the situation to talk, which is site-specific. For example in Berlin, Wedding we have prepared mobile coffee table to ask people about their memories about a district. Every SPACE_r is unique and it is focused on some issue or main topic.
