Welcome to a two-part event presenting Stine Frandsen’s MFA graduation project Dancing together as a practice of freedom from the MFA programme Dance and Participation.

10.30-11.30

In the practice-based sharing Sjæle og Silke you are invited to take part in a series of movement exercises inspired by the choreographer’s encounter with a group of workshop participants aged 65+ at the Peder Lykke Centre Activity Centre. A guided session moving between the familiar and the unknown creates space for meeting one another through dancing together. Everyone can participate!

(Language: English, approx. 30 minutes).

11.30-12.00

Coffee break

12.00-12.30

The second session presents the project as a whole, connecting theory and practice-based experiences. The project explores the political potential of facilitating dancing together as a practice of freedom across generations and backgrounds.

(Language: English, approx. 30 minutes).
