The Moving Stage Project Miloupourtout is an intercultural performance project foryoung artists. It has been developed in order to provide performers (e.g. from dance,theatre, acrobatics and pantomime) the possibility to present their work in several regionsin Europe on a moving stage. Hence, we shall create a multicultural evening variety showwith artists from several different countries. During several days of workshops andrehearsal, the participants can collect new impulses for their pieces. The final eveningprogramme will consist of a variety show which is created of several groups with up to30 participating performers variety show. After the event the artists will have thepossibility to further exchange ideas and techniques.
In order to create a dynamic and moving variety show, a core group of performers willtravel from Berlin to Porto via Barcelona between mid October and the end ofNovember. Thus the conception and performative usage of the mobile stage will renderpossible to present shows independently from the local performing spaces, often insurprising locations especially scouted by us!
With a close proximity to the melodious name of Miloupourtout – a fantasy name whichhighlights the playful, dynamic and connecting spirit of our project – we intend toprovide an intercultural and transnational artistic platform, which shall leave behindprejudice and national stereotyping. We intend to build cultural bridges by bringingtogether people from different national, artistic and disciplinary backgrounds. Throughthis exchange, we learn from each other by intern workshops, which reflect the creationin our variety show. This show is characterized by the different – performative – accentsof people from all over Europe. We further want to stress not only the phase ofperformance, but also the post-production through interactive and dynamic ways ofparticipation. This will also continue after finishing the tour, as we wish to create aninter-European space with a close network for future projects such as workshops and jobplacements in the artistic area.
