ZÄMMEHEEBE in Antananarivo, Madagscar
In the context of MIARAKA Festival in Antananarivo, Madagascar, I was invited to work with an inclusive group of Malagasy dancers with and without physical and cognitive disabilities, including company members of Cie.Lovatiana. Together we developped a new interpretation of "Zämmeheebe-Holding together" which revolves around the themes of community and belonging.
The performances took place as part of MIARAKA Festival in Antananarivo on 6th April 2023 at "Institute française de Madagascar" and on 8th of April 2023 at "Alliance française de Madagascar".

EQUALITY! goes to Mizoram, India
We are happy to see seeds planted in 2022 growing in 2023: EQUALITY! is travelling to Mizoram, in the northeast of India! Dancer and choreographer Joshua Sailo -who we met in the frame of Swiss Dance Days in early 2022- is inviting us to his home province Mizoram in collaboration with Pro Helvetia New Delhi. We are looking forward to not only perform at remarkable venues, but also to offer long-term choreographic workshops and exchanges with the local community around the topic of gender equality. We feel honored and excited to expand our vision with EQUALITY! to a new cultural context.

In SOLIDARITY! a musician and two dancers seek to overcome physical and emotional boundaries despite their diverse cultural and professional backgrounds, following the premise "We do everything together!". In order to succeed, they need active support - from each other and from the audience. They form a choir of moving bodies, a sounding, crashing, singing ensemble that makes itself heard for hidden stories. They tell stories of longing for belonging, the desire for togetherness and mutual support.
SOLIDARITY! is the second piece after EQUALITY! as part of a triology examining the three main principles of the French Enlightment slogan "Egalité! Solidarité!* Liberté!"
*Solidarity as the gender-neutral term for the french term of brotherhood "fraternité".
A dance piece for everyone from age 8 and up.
After EQUALITY!, the successful dance piece on gender equality in collaboration with choreographer Benjamin Lindh Medin, Rebecca Weingartner continues her work for young audiences with SOLIDARITY! in co-production with Theater Roxy.
