Relaxed Performance

For HELLERAU, the demand for inclusivity requires the promotion of artists with disabilities with a focus on their artistic quality. In July 2022, HELLERAU presented the first Relaxed Performance in Saxony in cooperation with the Landesbühnen Sachsen: "Difference" by Wagner Moreira. Thanks to funding from the German Federal Cultural Foundation, the ensemble was mixed-abled and the project was designed to be as accessible as possible by including different communities.

More about "Difference"

Our utopia of a society in which everyone is allowed to be who they are is constantly interrupted by everyday life. Wagner Moreira's production "Difference" explores with the dance company of the Landesbühnen Sachsen and mixed-abled experts what differences can trigger and how affiliations arise. In a new concept of Relaxed Performances combined with Sensorial Adapted Performances, it is about nothing less than a dance performance that is as accessible as possible for everyone. Various choreographies are created in several rooms, giving the audience plenty of freedom in a relaxed atmosphere. Particularly suitable for people with disabilities or special needs.
