“The Listening Body” is a Contact Improvisation workshop with a simple proposal: arriving without forcing, opening the body to listening and following where that openness leads. In the workshop, we explore how the body can be understood through minimal movement—how even the smallest shift, pause, or touch can carry depth and information. The workshop is intended for people with experience in Contact Improvisation or another

A German-Indian project about bodies, identity, and social conditioning. Rebecca Mary Narum (DE/USA) and Purnendra Meshram (IN) encounter each other with their visibly different bodies and experiences. Using contact improvisation, real-time composition, and a transparent plastic sheet as a symbol of social “skins,” they explore closeness and difference, visibility and withdrawal. The project invites the audience to actively participate—not only as spectators, but as co-researchers.
