This one-day seminar is developed and arranged by Dansehallerne in collaboration with Limfjordsteatret, Teatercentrum and The Danish National School of Performing Arts – Further Education. We are happy to work with our reference group consisting of My Grönholdt, Tali Razga, and Anna Ross Agner.

At this seminar for performing arts professionals, you will meet collegues who are curious about the youngest children as an audience, and you will gain insights into Norwegian choreographer Siri Dybwik’s work for 0 – 6 year olds.

In the morning, Siri Dybwik, Kirsten Halle and dybwikdans will share aspects of their artistic practice, where you as a participant will also get to try out different methods on the floor. The afternoon is reserved for dialogue among the participants, departing from the question ”How do we engage the youngest audience and their adults around the artistic experience in ways that support the trace of the experience?”

Julie Holmegaard Schade and Camilla Schnack Tellefsen who has performed in dybwikdans piece “Bagom Stjernene” will join the present-ation by playing a song and share some of their experiences with us.
