A day-long workshop on writing about dance performances for children. The pretext for the analysis becomes two family dance performances: “Where Shapes Have Necks” by Holobiont collective, which will be presented on the Scena Wspólna, and “Labyrinth” directed by Alicja Morawska-Rubczak, the recording of which the participants watch during the workshop.
The meeting is addressed to critics and students of both dance and art for children. It takes a workshop form – through discussions and performative games, the participants think together with the teachers about how critical texts on dance for children can look like. Using strategies from different areas of theater criticism (theater, dance, children’s theater) class outlines both – areas of dialogue and places in need of new language.
