NEWTOPIA 7 STILL IN THE LABORATORY !
Is a society, that is committed to including and valuing all citizens in their growth process, a utopian society? A society Omnibus ? (means “for all“, in Latin). I have no idea… In any case, the rise of separatisms in the world is a worrying fact, even if at the same time, we are discovering initiatives that protect diversity, singularity, minorities… The French Colibri movement has chosen a title for their summer newsletter that is very much in line with our newtopian concerns : “contemplate together in order to think for yourself”. Our team remains committed to the citizens’ emancipation through the arts. This summer, while resting a little, we are preparing the creative ENORMITY of Newtopia 7.4 on September 27th! After a more than positive and festive General Assembly and some joyful but…weird rehearsals in June, we continue this summer with :
- 11 – 17 july, rehearsals for Thylax / Newtopia 4, in Thessaloniki Greece (Here are some pics : Flickr_Thylax_2019
- End of August, rehearsals for Politeïes / Newtopia 4, in Espace Giraudeau, in Tours
As the back-to-school season is likely to be intense for most of us, here are the important dates to remember for September:
- 18 September : 1st choreographic workshop of the season with Dimitri Tsiapkinis. INFO : Atelier Newtopia 8
- 21-22 September, a physical theater workshop with Filio Louvari. INFO (in french): helloasso.com/omnivion/stage_filio-louvari
