Rough Proposals is an experimental platform for the presentation of artistic works by students of the international Master's ​programme in Choreography and Performance at the Institute of Applied Theatre Studies in Giessen. In numerous ​choreographies, performances, installations, works in progress etc., eleven students give the audience an insight into their artistic ​work, explorations, and research processes.

Rough Proposals 2024 has been developed within the course, and with the guidance of Dr. Martina Ruhsam and with the support ​of Prof. Dr. Bojana Kunst.

This year’s edition will be presented in the framework of Hessische Theatertage 2024.

With the financial support of the Hessian Theatre Academy.

A lamp bulb can contain 47% silicon and 53% oxygen and the housing of a stage lighting equipment is 90% aluminum with traces of iron, the same iron present in the human body. To name what one holds is to touch the history of things. The time of things. To touch the fact that things take time. This is an invitation to a small audience to spend a fragment of their day at the theater space together with three performers, letting time, labor and leisure unfold.

Das Werk behandelt das Drama der Migranten, die die Amerikas zu Fuß überqueren, um die Vereinigten Staaten zu erreichen. Besonders im Mittelpunkt steht die Migrationsroute durch den Darien-Dschungel, zwischen Panama und Kolumbien. Mit dieser Aufführung wollen Santiago Mariño und Juan Camilo Rojas der Diaspora auf dieser gefährlichen Pilgerreise Tribut zollen, indem sie aufzeigen, wie dieses lebensbedrohliche Ereignis eine Folge der gewaltsamen kolonialen Realitäten ist, die in Lateinamerika etabliert wurden. Tanz, Performance und Theater werden die politischen und emotionalen Komplexitäten der Odyssee, den Darien-Dschungel zu Fuß zu überqueren—eine der topographisch herausforderndsten Gegenden auf dem Planeten—aufdecken, während die lateinamerikanischen Kosmologien des Fortschritts, die Relativierung der Menschenrechte und die asymmetrischen Machtverhältnisse zwischen dem globalen Norden und Süden thematisiert werden. 

Das Stück wird im Rahmen des DanceNexus Festivals in Wiesbaden gezeigt.

Das DanceNexus Festival wird von der Gemeinschaft der Freiberufliche Tanzkünstler_innen Wiesbaden & Mainz organisiert, zu der auch der MA Choreografie und Performance Student Johannes Schropp gehört. Dies wird die erste Ausgabe des Festivals sein.

Amargi ist ein collective research Projekt, das durch teils öffentliche, teils geschlossene Prozesse von Vorträgen und Workshops zu einer Performance führt. Das Projekt wird drei Monate lang im Kontext des diesjährigen Implantieren Festivals mit dem Thema „Ein Festival auf den Ruinen der Universität” stattfinden, bei dem das Lernen von und mit anderen im Fokus steht. Thematisch werden wir uns mit der Jineolojî und ihren Methoden beschäftigen und gemeinsam (künstlerisch) forschen. 

Genaue Zeiten werden noch bekannt gegeben.
