highlights from northern Thailand


We are happy to share our recent project in Northern Thailand. We had the privilege of collaborating with 10 local organizations that assist boys and girls who have been victims of trafficking. During the weeks of theatre training, we introduced new exercises, games, and scene-making to their counselors and social workers, which they will pass on to their youth. At the same time, we learned so much about working with traumatized youth, and the value of self-expression to uplift and release tensions.

Essay about the Swedish-Belarusian project Mama Zoya, Belarus where I was a partner from Belarusian side.

This new documentary film explores the origins, performances, personalities and fate of Red Mole, the legendary theatre group which included Magdalena Aotearoa co-founder Sally Rodwell, mask and puppet virtuouso Deborah Hunt, the poet Alan Brunton and many others from Aotearoa’s alternative arts community of the early 1970s.

Liebe Freundinnen und Freunde von Theater Unikate,
 
womit das kommende Jahr 2024 wohl aufwarten wird? Eine Zuversicht auf bessere Zeiten mag sich angesichts der vielen thematischen und realen Fronten schwerlich einstellen.
 
Deshalb versuche ich, mich an das zu halten, was mich beruhigt bei all der Unruhe und mir sicher erscheint; an das, was ich geben und teilen darf; was mich erfreut; was mir in düsteren Zeiten Halt verspricht: 
a cross disciplinary piece combining theatre, dance, sound and lights, about a statue of a woman coming alive, breaking loose and dancing within the elasticity of her imagination.

It’s a Real Coincidence, co-devised and directed by Gráinne O’Carroll and Sophie Kasser, will be presented in Germany in July 2024.
