According to the use you give to your wings,
you can fly or fall to the ground,
cause a tornado or offer refuge,
rekindle a fire or extinguish it.
According to the energy, the direction and the time-rhythm used
the actors decide the effects of their actions.

THEATRE PROJECT IKARUS is a space of research designed for people who wish to develop their acting technique through annual meetings, during which we will explore different strategies to create stage material, using training as a bridge for creation, and integrating study and exchange on practice and theory and its empirical application.

Training

Looking for a personal training.
Kalaripayattu and Silambam training principles.
Exchange of theoretical ideas and empirical application.

Creative Process

Bridge from training to creation: Application of the training materials to a small format stage project.
Urban intervention technique: Creation of a character and/or a routine for using in unconventional spaces.

Barter

Share socially one or more skills that each participant has already acquired and discover its stage potential. During the project, we will make different activities for children and resident families at the Holstebro Asylcenter (Refugee Centre).
