GREAT BARRIER REEF<\/p>\n<\/h1>\n

WELCOME TO THE CORAL REEF!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Great Barrier Reef<\/em> is a transgenerational participatory event consisting of a workshop, lunch, a collective performance, and a silent demonstration. We invite both adults and children to an adventure on the coral reef. Our mission is to keep the Great Barrier Reef alive!
\nThe Great Barrier Reef near the coast of Australia is the largest coral reef in the world, a unique and endangered ecosystem. In the Great Barrier Reef<\/em> performance we visit the coral reef without travelling far. The participants, adults and children of all ages, use their bodies to create together a living and constantly changing construction, a large human coral reef.
\nGreat Barrier Reef<\/em> begins with a workshop where we learn together to create the underwater world of the coral reef. The experience is supported by imaginative lighting and music. The goal is to create a living sculpture and an ever changing choreography.
\nThe participants of the Great Barrier Reef<\/em> are simultaneously viewers as well as authors, and they create and shape the performance for themselves. There are no outside spectators. Great Barrier Reef<\/em> is suitable for people of all condition and all ages above 6 years. (Children under 12 need to be accompanied by an adult.) Prior experience is not needed.
\nAs part of the Great Barrier Reef<\/em>, we arrange a public silent underwater demonstration where corals express their concern for the state of the oceans.<\/p>\n
