In addition to the shows we look forward to a diverse symposium that brings together different perspectives on dance, theatre, and living together in a diverse society. Through talks, workshops, performative formats, and shared encounters, we invite participants to engage with current questions, exchange experience, and explore new impulses for artistic practice. For an overview of the symposium program please klick here: Symposium.

We wish everyone a good summer with some time to relax and gather energy for the next season and we send our thoughts to those in the global TYA-community who are living and working in areas of war and crisis and don't have the privilege of enjoying a break.

Best wishes

Your FRATZ team
