Poetry Slam

Word art on Hamburg's stages.

Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    DANCE IN SCHOOL - BASICS AND METHODS

    For teachers and educators who are gaining their first experience or who wish to work with dance in schools, experienced local and international choreographers provide practical insights into their artistic work. In doing so, they teach basic concepts, methods and areas of application for guiding improvisation, developing choreographies and discussing dance following a performance.

    Gitta Barthel opens the workshop with the fundamentals and concludes it with reflection and feedback methods. The duo Rykena / Jüngst demonstrate how they work in a diversity-sensitive way with and through the body. Finally, Fernanda Ortiz and Katharina de Andrade Ruiz draw parallels between visual arts and dance and share practical experience for cross-curricular teaching. Part of the training course involves attending a performance of “Switch generation!” by Nora Elberfeld and Regina Rossi. The performance is an additional event taking place outside the Tuesday session series. The performance dates will be announced at the start of the course.

    No previous experience required | the training series can only be booked consecutively | a ticket is valid for the entire training series and must be presented on the first day.

    DANZ:ATRAVES

    Since August, Marino Ariza has been an INTRO fellow at K3, exploring how movement can be used to develop a shared language that transcends words. Every two weeks, he brings together people from Latin America to help them connect with their own bodies and create a space of joy, connection, and togetherness. The program is explicitly aimed at people from Latin America with migration experiences, as migration can be isolating, while dance can bring people together and foster a sense of community. The sessions are open to everyone, with or without dance experience.

    Open to everyone, with or without dance experience
    For people with a background in migration
    Free of charge; regular attendance is encouraged

    Please note: The workshop on 11.11. takes place at Kaltenkircher Platz (Kaltenkircher Str. 1-5, Gebäudeteil I, 22769 Hamburg).

    Das Blaue vom Himmel ... (8 - 12 Jahre + Erw.)

    A wealth of history and stories, new and old, struggle and love, play and seriousness…

    There's a lot going on in the world – even in Ährenfeld, Dinglingen, and Brodelmoor. These are very different countries. Here, where Pine comes from, agriculture is more prevalent. Where Örjan lives, things are invented and manufactured. And there, with Asha, the priority is keeping one's feet on the ground. But these countries do have one thing in common: a border. And unpredictable things happen when borders are crossed. Is it an opportunity or a risk? That's what our game pieces are asking themselves as we let them step over the edge of their board games.

    After the performances, there will be an opportunity for a discussion with the ensemble.

    A more detailed brochure about the production "Das Blaue vom Himmel" is available upon request. It can also be downloaded from our website!

    Excerpts from student reviews: "The play made me think in a positive way, because our world isn't much different. There are also industrialized countries, developing countries, and resource-rich countries. Wars also break out, disputes are resolved, there are large societies, and religions exist within them; a very interesting play."
    "I like the play because it deals with a difficult topic, how a war arises between different societies, and it is explained in an understandable way in the play."
    Teacher's comment: "The topic is highly relevant and it's been implemented so brilliantly. Using so many different methods."

    Decoder Ensemble

    The Decoder Ensemble is one of the most innovative and fearless acts on the international contemporary music scene. With its high-energy sound, it thrills audiences in renowned concert halls as well as in trendy clubs such as Berlin’s Berghain. For several years, Decoder hosted the Elbphilharmonie series »Unterdeck«, during which they organised exciting performance evenings featuring a wide variety of guest artists.
    In their latest programme, »New Codes on the Block«, the ensemble offers young composers the opportunity to create new works for the group. In workshops, the pieces are explored and further developed together with the musicians. Four of the resulting compositions are then selected and combined into a dramaturgically conceived concert evening. Once again, Decoder Ensemble lives up to its name by decoding the artistic languages of a new generation through both musical notation and electronic media.
