Let's Talk About Art: This workshop aims to train the audience’s gaze, to facilitate a participatory path in artistic creation and escape from the binary logic of good/bad, right/wrong, like/dislike. The method is summed up in a tool we call ‘THE DRAMALYSER,’ which guides both those who observe and those who play to express accurate and precise reactions to a performance.
This tool allows artists to discuss the state of their creations, in order to improve the show and expand their creativity. This can lead to a positive change in dialogue between the public and creators, and a more participatory creation process. The method, created within Trallallero-International Festival of Theatre and Culture for the New Generations, from the team of MateâriuM, has been recently adopted as good practice by ASSITEJ Italy, and included in 'Chain Reaction Project'.
The seminar will be organised as follows:
- Introduction: Why this concept? The curators of the method. The contribution of ASSITEJ Italy in the dissemination of the practice
- Theory: The method. The parameters of DRAMALYSER: comprehensibility, rhythm and structure, auditory and visual aspects, actuality
- Practice: We will give a short practical demonstration of the method in action!
Dancing Words: The aim of the event is to focus on the verbal, critical and theoretical reflection on dance for a young audience. With this first step, we would like to stimulate the creation of analytical texts and reflections in this area in the long term. We consider diversity of research perspectives to be of great value. Through the meeting we would like to stimulate a dialogue about the strategies of writing and verbally reflecting about dance for children in different regions of the world. During the session we will:
-Practice writing while watching dance,
-Reflect on different ways and strategies of writing about dance for a young audience,
-Look into the Young Dance Network's new project of creating a database of texts about choreography for Y.A, brainstorm about potential partners of this project as well as collaborations with other networks under the umbrella of ASSITEJ International.
The 'Dancing Words' event is supported by ASSITEJ Germany.

The Young Dance Network (YDN) is a platform for professionals in the field of dance for young audiences to connect and exchange ideas. Our main goal is to support and promote the artistic development of contemporary dance for children and young audiences, which has been flourishing across Europe and other parts of the world. We believe that even in places where the contemporary dance scene is thriving, there has not been enough attention given to artistic work specifically aimed at young audiences. YDN aims to create a space for long-term networking and development, providing choreographers, dancers, and dramaturges in this field with a strong platform from which to work, grow, and invigorate contemporary dance for young audiences. We strive to build strong connections between artists, recruit new interested parties, and explore common points of interest to inspire new collaborations and exchanges.

She acts as the content supervisor of the 'Roztanczne Rodziny' (Dancing Families) program and has received scholarships from the Minister of Science and Higher Education, the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, and the Alternative Dance Academy. Through her creative and research endeavors, Hanna explores topics such as artistic research, the political nature of choreography, somatic practices, and psychoanalytic and posthuman reflection.
