crossculture workshops
France in the year 1789. Amid the turmoil of the French Revolution, the poet André Chénier, at first an ardent supporter, becomes a mercilessly persecuted victim. The opera André Chénier is a historical thriller crossed with a passionate, dramatic tale of love. The crossculture workshops offer participants the chance to get a feel for the historical events and to work out their own way of staging the scenes. This "Opernschlüssel" workshop can be very conveniently combined with a guided tour.

crossculture dance project
Panta rhei – alles fließt! (World premiere)
Die Moldau at the Werkstattbühne
The dance production Panta rhei is inspired by water and it flows in a musical stream from Smetana's symphonic poem Die Moldau (Vltava) to three new works by young composers. The music will be played by members of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. In the community dance project Panta rhei – everything is in flux, enthusiastic dancers from fidgety kids to sprightly grannies will take to the stage.
A co-production of the Bregenz Festival and Grazer Spielstätten.
With the kind support of youngCaritas Vorarlberg – Movimento.
Choreography by Monika Mayer-Pavlidis
The ensemble Acht Cellisten der Wiener Symphoniker
