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

The 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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great 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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As 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<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
