The festival THEATER DER WELT is coming to Chemnitz - become a part of it!
We are looking for participants for the project LOS JUEGOS x Oxymoron by Checho Tamayo. The Colombian performance artist asks: What happens when people who don't know each other invent new games together? When it's not about winning, but about taking part? When rules are not fixed, but are created together?
In a five-day workshop, you will come together with Checho to develop new games that combine movement, football, dance and ritual. No previous experience in sport, dance or theatre is necessary. What is important is curiosity, openness and the desire to try something out together with others.
Workshop:
Monday, 29.06. to Friday, 03.07.2026
17:00-20:00 each day
Chemnitz city economy
Presentations:
Saturday, 04.07.2026, 17:00, Markersdorfer Oase
Sunday, 05.07.2026, 17:00, Neumarkt
All Chemnitz residents aged 18 and over are welcome to take part - regardless of age, origin, language or previous experience. The workshop will be held in German, English and Spanish.
