May News
This spring is all about being, in the present moment!
Present Performing workshop @ Isadora Festival (Krasnoyarsk, Russia/Russie) – 17-20 May 2016
Being – performance @ Isadora Festival (Krasnoyarsk, Russia), 21 May
:present participle of verb “be” (am, are, was, were); noun – a living organism
This instantly composed solo is based on the rollercoaster of emotions, questions & reflections on life Susanne experienced recently, after close encounters with death. What is left after so much loss? What is gained? How is life coloured indelibly by this experience?
Movement, sound & text are combined in the present moment to create this fleeting, unrepeatable performance, as the present is all we really have.
Live. Love. Life.

power of your words
“We are told that actions speak louder than words. But I wonder, do they? Our words, however we communicate them, are just as powerful. Whether we speak the words with our own voices, type them with our eyes, or communicate them non-verbally to someone who speaks them for us, words are among our most powerful tools.” – Martin Pistorius
How will you use your words today? With others, with yourself?
Thanks Martin for this reminder!
