2025.04.25: workshop by Steven Michel at Festspielhaus St. Pölten

Op April 25th, 2025 Steven Michel will be giving a workshop in the framework of VOICE NOISE at Festspielhaus St. Pölten.

https://www.festspielhaus.at/

In this research workshop about VOICE NOISE, Steven Michel will guide participants through a few principles of the creative process behind the performance VOICE NOISE by Jan Martens. Throughout the session, the focus will be on exploring the music of the performance, which curates remarkable, unheard, or overlooked women's voices from the past hundred years. The workshop will delve into the transformative potential of recorded voices as catalysts for movement. Participants will be encouraged to embody these voices in their own unique way, using them as an inspiration to uncover their core identity as dancers. The overarching question guiding the exploration is: how can the voice serve as an invitation to reveal our most essential dancing selves?
