Culture and politics are broad areas. Both are immanent in shaping life. They primarily differ in the question of how to do this: from the bottom up or from the top down? Culture is a field of activity characterised by people coming together. It’s all about cultural experiences, creative processes and cultural forms of expression. But culture is also an area of action. A number of different actors are involved in any cultural exchange. They create infrastructures and their cultural offers create demands. One of the duties of societies is to promote this development. In this way culture also becomes an area of politics. Both public support and civil society are responsible for shaping cultural policies. Each has its own different reasons for creating frameworks that allow culture to flourish.

Political necessity and dramatic potential have created a theatre that uses development tools in live performances. Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA), especially Theatre for Early Years could be a kind of participatory theatre that encourages audience members to take roles in creating performance. It could be the creation of imagination. It could be an education for the arts, a fundamental experience for learning the basics of the performing arts.

“Visioni di futuro, visioni di teatro”, the international festival of Teatro Testoni Ragazzi in Bologna is the leading project in the world for the development of TYA for development. “Small Size” is the vibrant artistic network behind this unique event and this year’s program including shows, Master Classes and an exchange with African Artists will be a promotion of clever concepts – in Cultural Policy for Theatre for Early Years.

Congratulations to “La Baracca”, the inspiring hosting company! Welcome to Bologna, the European Capital of Kids! Take part in the future of TYA!

Welcome to the festival! 4 I do not know if it has ever happened to you to walk the route you always walk, the same old one for the thousandth time, lift your head without thinking and find yourself in front of something you think you see for the first time. A roof-terrace, a small tower, a balcony, a small statue nestled into the façade of a building. It often happens to me, when I walk the streets of Bologna. So I stop, and marvel. And I wonder whether that detail was there the day before. I have the feeling that it was never there, that it has just been built or that it has always remained concealed. But I know it is not like that. That roof-terrace, that statue have always been there, with their beauty, someti- mes centuries-old, age and matter. So I stop and look at that detail, unknown to me until that very moment. I feel the same when I stop and look at a child who observes and listens to the world surrounding them. I get the feeling that they are really watching the world, with those eyes open wide, full of amazement and able to take in every detail. And that they feel and listen carefully to the feelings and information that sounds and words carry with them. To learn, children watch and listen. But are we able to watch and listen to little boys and girls? Is there any place to do it in our world of grown-ups? I mean a physical and mental space where we do not need to teach or guide, but only to watch and listen, and where we can only rely on children’s thoughts and images to feel complete as grown-ups. I like to think that doing art for, and with, children can in itself be one of these spe- cial spaces, where we sometimes can simply and amazingly share – children and adults together – different sensibilities. A space where our eyes can fill of amazement and listen carefully to take in new Visions...

Roberto Frabetti La Baracca - Testoni Ragazzi

Welcome to the festival! 5 SHOW 1 - 3 YEARS Silvia Traversi and Giambattista Giocoli - Bologna E SE UN ARCOBALENO/What if a rainbow by and with Silvia Traversi and Giambattista Giocoli On stage, a dancer and a musician. Among instruments that become characters, they tell a dream-story made of chan- ges, images and suggestions with different atmospheres. In- struments, sounds, dance and music get together and move in an imaginary place - maybe a forest - where, after the storm, the rainbow will appear. The very young watchers are approached thanks to the use of non-verbal, expressive languages, in a creative, imaginative and emo- tional vision that will be adapted to the audience time after time. Dance and music are the protagonists of the physical and emotional work, just as body and emotion are the central elements of early years. Saturday, February 23rd h 4.30 p.m. and 6.30 p.m.

La Baracca - Testoni Ragazzi I COLORI DELL’ACQUA/The colours of water by Roberto Frabetti - with Valeria Frabetti and Andrea Buzzetti 10 years of performances... Happy birthday! Water came with the rain and the hidden garden was sud- denly brought into life. Fountains and basins were filled. Fruit, leaves, trees and plants have dusted off their colours and the rainbow appeared high up in the sky. In the middle of the hidden garden, there is someone who’s looking for water. Dippers and jugs in their hands, looking for water and colours. The yellow of corn, the deep red of to- matoes, the purple of flowers... The two protagonists accompany us in a journey to discover an earthly rainbow made of natural elements. “The colours of water” is a show about simple and naturally beautiful elements. Colours play and we discover all the nuances of the world. Sunday, February 24th h 9.30 and 11.30 a.m. – Thursday, February 28th h 9.30 a.m.

Preview DelleAli - Cassano d’Adda (MI) COSA C’è...? Piccola esplorazione tra le cose dei grandi What’s in there? A journey through the things of the grown-ups by Giada Balestrini and Monica Parmagnani with Giada Balestrini/Monica Parmagnani Carton boxes, containers containing other containers with doors, shutters and openings where you can put your nose and eyes... and discover. Microcosms of sounds, noises, shapes, colours, pieces of world concealing other little pieces of world. Mum’s purse, the shopping bag, daddy’s toolbox, the laundry basket... The curious character on stage touches, listens, turns upside down and reveals, looking at things from the inside and from the outside. Resounding, chanting and singing he sets off on his journey. It is a show about curiosity, about opening and closing, revealing and concealing, giving and taking. A show to feel, touch and watch, in order to make the discovery of spatial relationships easier: near-far, inside-outside, on-under, in front-behind, between, up-down. Monday, February 25th h 9.30 a.m.

6 SHOW 1 - 3 YEARS La Baracca - Testoni Ragazzi Babbo Bibbo e mamma Mimma by and with Roberto Frabetti This is the story of Lello, a young koala bear. Babbo Bibbo and Mamma Mimma are his father and mother. When young Lel- lo decides it is time for him to explore the world, Babbo Bibbo and Mamma Mimma say OK, even though he’s still so young. They know that the first portion of world to be explored is the one “near home”. So they let him go, following him without being seen. During his journey, the young koala bear meets a bunch of animals of every kind. They all agree with Babbo Bibbo and Mamma Mimma about the idea of building a big play for Lello, that ends up coming back home with a big party! Babbo Bibbo and Mamma Mimma is a story about the respect for the indepen- dence of children. Knowing that this means to “let them go”, considering the right amount of the risk, commensurate on their age, experiences and personal skills. Wednesday, February 27th h 9.30 a.m. - Sunday, March 3rd h 9.30 and 11.30 a.m.

Preview Tam Teatromusica (Padova) Ho un punto fra le mani Libero gioco multisensoriale a partire dalla pittura di Kandinsky Colours in my hands Free, multisensory play starting from Kandinsky’s paintings by Flavia Bussolotto - with Flavia Bussolotto and Alessandro Martinello Kandinsky used to say that shapes and colours speak to the soul. Thanks to their sen- sible qualities, shapes are living things to be listened to, and colours remind of a vital sensation, a feeling, a sound. The work of art is a score of shapes and colours, and its creation is the creation of a world into which spectators are invited to “dive with all their senses”. On stage, two bodies interact with the silence of a point in the space, with the poetic dimension of a curve that reminds of a smile. They are overwhel- med by colours, and colours are food, perfumes, the sounds of musical instruments; each colour is a note and the sensory play of the actors functions as a mirror for the little spectators. They experience their perceptions and their sensory memory in the form of mental images. Thanks to the video projections, the elements of painting evoke worlds that physically touch the actors’ bodies: how does a colour smell like? How does it taste and sound like? Friday, March 1st h 9.30 a.m.

Teatr Baj (Warsaw - Polond) Śpij/Sleep... by Alicja Morawska-Rubczak - with Alicja Morawska-Rubczak, Elżbieta Bieda, Andrzej Bocian/Magdalena Dąbrowska and Marta Gryko Spij is a show that tells us how the apparently easy activity of sleeping can turn into something exciting and surprising. The show casts a different light on daily-life, discovering the world through the curious eyes of children. A comfortable and safe space, with acoustic live music, welcomes the little spectators: the environment is perfect for relaxing. The performance is open to exchange and interaction, allowing children and parents to feel completely free. Saturday, March 2nd h 9.30 a.m., 11.30 a.m. and 5.30 p.m. 7 SHOW 2 - 5 YEARS Alfredo Zinola & Felipe González with the support: Fonds Darstellende Künste e.V., Kunststiftung NRW and “Small size, big citizens” project In collaboration with: Fondazione Teatro Ragazzi e Giovani ONLUS, SCHAUBUDE BERLIN Theater.Puppen.Figuren.Objekte, fabrik Potsdam in frame of the Artists-in-Residence program, Barnes Crossing Freiraum für TanzPerformanceKunst Köln, Theaterlabor Bielefeld e.V. Primo/First by and with Alfredo Zinola e Felipe González An underwater show of contemporary dance, with objects and poetry in a big, transparent swimming pool that reproduces the special place housing children be- fore they are born: the uterus. We all experienced this condition but none of us re- members it; the changing sense of gravity and the movements, shapes and actions take on a different connotation. In this environment - with light coming from above and music from behind - and with the use of some plastic toys, two suspended bo- dies move and create an all-encompassing environment, where there is no sense of separation between the inside and the outside but only a sense of totality, like before... like when we were in our mum’s belly. Monday, February 25th h 5.30 p.m. - Tuesday, February 26th h 9.30 a.m.

Teatrimperfetti tichiamo/I’ll call you by Maria Ellero - with Maria Ellero and Andrea De Luca A man and a woman meet in an empty place. The place is very empty and they feel they need to fill it up. So she dances. And he sings. And the space is suddenly less empty. But still there is something missing and the man and the woman try to find it by singing and dancing. Is the singing producing dancing? Or is dance moving in the singing? And what happens if they try and see who sings or dances more quickly? Then, the body cuddles the voice and the singing protects the dancing. The space is not empty anymore. Now someone else can come. But who? Maybe, if we look for them together, if we call them by singing together... maybe someone - someone very small - made of singing and dancing, will come... Wednesday, February 27th h 5.30 p.m.

Helios Theater (Hamm - Germany) Holzklopfen/Woodbeat by Barbara Kölling and Michael Lurse with Michael Lurse and Roman D. Metzner It might be as big as a tree or as small as a small as a tiny splinter. It might be furniture or paper – wood surrounds us every day. A percussionist and a puppeteer take their audience on a fascinating journey into wooden pictures and the sound of wood. They create figures and creatures, objects and tools and find out what wood can become in surprisingly new ways. Thursday, February 28th h 5.30 p.m. - Friday, March 1st h 11.30 a.m.

Over the two weekends of the Festival, one hour before the performance, Conapi-Alce Nero-Mielizia will offer a bio snack to the audience

8 SHOW 3 - 6 YEARS Arte e Salute Onlus in collaboration with La Baracca - Testoni Ragazzi In cucina/In the kitchen adaptation of the show “Peach and Redcurrant” by La Baracca-Testoni Ragazzi. Directed by Valeria Frabetti - with Indira Ahmetovic, Luca Alberghini, Silvana Bentivoglio, Alberto Bertocchi, Venusta Biagi, Stefano Cittadino, Luca Mondadori Arte e Salute is a non-profit organisation. The association promo- tes and organises theatre training courses for psychiatric patients. Arte e Salute Onlus has been collaborating for years with La Baracca - Testoni Ragazzi, organizing courses about theatre for young people. In a kitchen where objects are either huge or very small, a group of cooks are working to prepare an amazing cake. Together with greedy mice and caterpillars that love Rossini’s music, the protagonists use their imagination to transform daily-life objects into characters of incredible stories. It is a story about the pleasure to touch, eat, mess up, get dirty and get scared... Sunday, February 24th h 5.30 p.m - Wednesday, February 27th h 10.30 a.m.

No Somos Monstruos Teatro (Elche - ) Susurros/Whispers by Juan Alberti - with Sofìia Castellote This is a dance-theatre show about the special relationship that is established between a mother and her baby. The story is set on an ordinary day: from the moment when the baby wakes up and needs his mother, to the end of the day, when the baby goes to sleep. The baby eats, gets his bath and walks outside, plays and goes to bed: these are some of the key-moments of a mother and her baby’s daily-life. Susurros (Whispers) is a show inspired by emotion. It is an acknowledgement to a mother’s love, to the un- conditional commitment, efforts, joy and sorrow, and to everything that the word “mother” means. Sunday, February 24th h 6.30 p.m. - Monday, February 25th h 10.30 a.m.

Compagnia Franceschini Performingarts Ass. culturale (Vallese di Oppeano - VR) Ciripiripì La vita è festa/Life is joy by and with Gianni Franceschini Carnival and New Year’s Eve, Easter and the Summer Sol- stice are dates that remind us of the passing of time, of growth, maturity, sleep and joy. They are, more in general, metaphors of life. The show is centred on this special cycle and retraces the adventure of life, highlighting the most important events. It is the story of Ciripiripì the bird, from its birth to the moment when it finally becomes a fa- ther. As a bird, its life revolves around the changing of seasons. And when seasons change, then nature celebrates life, and the audience is invited to take part in it with simple actions that create the change of the seasons, of the looks and colours of the trees, and of the environmental and relational surroundings of Ciripiripì. The little spectators can see themselves mirrored in the protagonist of our story, they discover the journey of life and they are invited to share the main events of the adventure’s development. Monday, February 25th h 11.30 a.m.

9 SHOW 3 - 6 YEARS Eccentrici Dadarò (Caronno Pertusella - VA) Un anatroccolo in cucina/ A duckling in the kitchen by and with Simone Lombardelli In the kitchen of a big restaurant, there is a cook sinking in soap. Sounds and laughs come from behind the closed door. He dreams: he is sitting at a table behind that door, laughing and singing at the party. But the party needs to be prepared... and today it is his turn. So all he can do is dream... Dream about the ugly duckling, who woke up one day and found he was a swan, ready to fly off... The show recalls the fascinating atmosphere of the silent film era of the ‘20s, combining the magic of pantomime and clown art, with giant soap bubbles and tinkling glasses. The show is inspired by the tale of the “Ugly Duckling” and is centred on the topic of real or imaginary diversity, the need to be accepted and to be part of a group. Monday, February 25th h 2.30 p.m

De Stilte (Breda - Netherlands) Speelvogels/Madcap by Jack Timmermans - with Elena Sgarbi, Mirella de Almeida Castagna, Ekaterina Shushakova In Dutch, “Spellvogels” literally means “children that play”. A beautiful word for a beautiful event: children and play. When children play, something happens. In this show, three dancers are on stage to play, share their imagination and strengthen their friendship. The relationships between them are challenged, but their choices are made stronger because... three is already a crowd! Tuesday, February 26th h 5.30 p.m. - Wednesday February 27th h 11.30 a.m.

Giallo Mare Minimal Teatro (Empoli - Florence) PERCHÉ PIANGI?/Why are you crying? by and with Vania Pucci A doll falls to the ground, rolls around, gets screamed at, falls down again but does not cry... this is the starting point for a mother to tell her daughter about what tears mean... tears for skin wounds and soul wounds, tears for an onion soup and tears of joy... a river of tears where you can choose to drown in or just swim in... The protagonists are a doll, an actress and an artist who draws the world in real time around them. It is a sweet and involving show for the little ones about the first conflicts with the world.Tuesday, February 26th h 11.30 a.m.

Claudio Milani - Lato Parlato (Cavallasca - Como) lulù Tre fratelli, Tre racconti, Tre lucciole. E un mostro (azzurro) nascosto Three brothers, Three tales, Three fireflies. And a hidden (blue) monster by and with Claudio Milani This is the story of three brothers with blue eyes. They lose their parents when they are children, so the first brother is raised by two peasants,

10 SHOW 3 - 6 YEARS the second brother by a carpenter and the third one ends up in the arms of a be- autiful princess who should have got married. They will grow up by facing all the troubles that life puts on their path with instinct and heart, managing to overcome them with a touch of irony. And when the night is darker, fireflies will show them the road. And what about Lulù? Lulù is a blue monster, with big nails and big eyes. Lulù can eat, sometimes can fly, but the thing that he does best is to give birth to fireflies. Everybody thinks he exists, but nobody has ever seen him. Maybe you just need to be lucky to see him! Tuesday, February 26th h 10.30 a.m.

Preview Compagnia Rodisio (Collecchio - Parma) in collaboration with Unicorn Theatre (London, UK), Espace600 (Grenoble, FR) and Teatro alla Corte/UOT_unità di organizzazione teatrale (Collecchio, IT) ODE ALLA VITA/Ode to life by and with Manuela Capece and Davide Doro Let’s look for the Fool. The Madman, the Foolish man. Il Mat- to. Le Fou. Who comes and turns everything upside-down. Who dresses up, builds, invents, laughs, dances and tran- sforms himself. Who suddenly bursts to upset the daily round, everyday life. Who shifts between disorder and harmony, between good and evil. Who is made of pure instinct, pure spirit. Who is chaos and beauty. Who is innocence, originality, light-heartedness and incomprehensible actions. Who goes away from reality to create another one, from the beginning. Let’s look for the Fool so he can sing us an Ode to life. Tuesday, February 26th h 2.30 p.m.

Teatro delle Briciole (Parma) Pop Up Un fossile di cartone animato/Cartoon fossils concept and direction by “Sacchi di Sabbia” with Beatrice Baruffini and Serena Guardone With pop-up paper theatres and by playing with the epiphany of figures and shapes interwoven with the bodies of the actors, the show revolves around the creation of a hand-made cartoon, inspired by Walt Disney’s famous “Fantasia”. It is an occasion to study theatre as a flow of bodies over time, movement and the illusion of movement, the animation of motionless matter through an insight on kinetics. In 2010, Teatro delle Briciole started a new approach on productions, named “New views for a young audience”, entrusting Italian research groups with the task of creating shows for children. After “Baby don’t cry” and “Children’s Republic” (created by Babilonia Teatri and Teatro Sotterraneo respectively), the new collaboration of 2013 will be with Sacchi di Sabbia. Wednesday, February 27th h 2.30 p.m.

PREVIEWS are performances not yet finished that are presented to the public for the first time during the festival.

11 SHOW 3 - 6 YEARS La Baracca - Testoni Ragazzi Jack e il fagiolo magico Jack and the magic beans by Bruno Cappagli, Daniela Micioni and Carlotta Zini with Bruno Cappagli and Carlotta Zini You sell the cow! But can a young child make a good deal? Perhaps he can, thanks to his will to imagine fantastic worlds. Five magic beans will take us to the “upper world”, where everything is bigger, richer and nicer, but also more dangerous. Jack will show us how children can be much smarter and braver than grown-ups. On stage, two actors play on two levels: the contrast big vs. small (the ogre and the child) and fantastic vs. real (the world above the clouds and the one on earth). It is a passionate, very physical theatrical play combined with the imaginary world of the videos. Thursday, February 28th h 10.30 a.m. - Sunday, March 3rd h 5.30 p.m.

Preview Vera Stasi/Teatro degli Incerti (Tuscania - Viterbo) I SOGNI DI CLORINDA/Clorinda’s dreams by and with Cristina Failla and Mariella Sto Clorinda can’t sleep. She tries to avoid sleep by performing some little ritual actions: she turns lights on and off, starts her music box, reads a magazine, brushes her teeth. Finally, she plays a lullaby with her trombone. The sounds made by her trombone encourage her dreams to take shape and help her close her eyes. After the last dream of the night, Clorinda wakes up fresh and happy, ready for her new day. The story is told through action, music and dance. There will be almost no words, maybe vocal exercises and onomatopoeias. Thursday, February 28th h 11.30 a.m.

ZebraDans (Stockholm - Sweden) HEJ VAD HETER DU?/Hello! What’s your name? by Ossi Niskala with Mira Björkman, Måns Boll and Annica Styrke In the show, the history of names is told through modern dance, music, songs and animation. Names are important; everyone of us has one. How complicated would life be if we didn’t have a name? How could we relate to each other? How could I ask my best friend to go out if she didn’t have a name? Friday, March 1st h 5.30 p.m. - Saturday, March 2nd h 10.30 a.m.

Teatro Gioco Vita (Piacenza) LA PIETRA E IL BAMBINO - Una favola di Guia Risari The stone and the child, a fairy tale by Guia Risari by Guia Risari - with Domenico Sannino and Laura Zeolla The show is inspired by Guia Risari’s tale “The stone and the child”. By making use of their traditional combination of sha- dows and acting, Teatro Gioco Vita created a show that is an ode to life and to the mysteries of nature. Also, it is an invi- tation not to forget that everything that surrounds us is alive and that love can give life to the most amazing things. An invitation to deeply trust

12 SHOW 3 - 6 YEARS our sensory and emotional dimension, to let ourselves go and flow with our wonder- ful, innermost world, an universe where there is no such thing as a deus ex-machina or magic actions, but everything is pervaded by the force of sympathy that pushes human beings to get together and help each other. So, in the imagination of an abandoned and lonely child, even a stone can turn into a a great, comforting mother, and this encounter can inspire, in the audience’s imagination, the eternal connection between mankind and the earth. Friday, March 1st h 10.30 a.m.

Compagnie Forest Beats (La Ville du Bois- ) Fractales/Fractals by and with Yutaka Takei, Nicolas Barraud and Phil Reptil The patterns and structures we can find in nature and in the universe have something in common. It is called “principle of self-similarity”. Fractals are one of the things that this principle tries to express: we can find them in a snow crystal or in the shape designed by a coast line, in a tree or in a mountain. Fractals are geometric patterns that are repeated at ever smaller scales to produce irregular shapes and surfa- ces, meaning that they do not change even if we look at them through a ma- gnifying glass. In this performance, the Company combines plastic and visual arts, dance, music and the involvement of the audience... This time, in a world of fractals! The world is full of possible perspectives and points of view. If we look at life with new eyes and observe carefully what we normally disregard, our present life can be more joyous than our yesterdays! Friday, March 1st h 2.30 p.m.

Compagnie Forest Beats (La Ville du Bois- France) FRONTIÈRES FLOTTANTES - HOMMAGE À L’ART BRUT Floating borders - A tribute to art brut by Yutaka Takei - with Yutaka Takei, Nicolas Barraud and Phil Reptil A musician, a videodirector-juggler and a dancer interact, and the audience is invited to join them on stage. In this show, the relationship stage-audience is questioned. So, who’s the artist? Who follows them? Who creates art? It is a tribute to all art forms and spontaneous creativity, the one without cultural claims and pre-established intellectual processes. Saturday, March 2nd h 8.30 p.m.

Activities reserved to the Master Class students and professionals:

13 Workshops The art of training for the arts Demonstrative workshops (3 hours)

The International Museum and Library of Music of Bologna presents MAMAMUSICA Workshop on musical learning in early years with Chiara Bartolotta, expert in music learning theory and in collaboration with Linda Tesauro and Luca Bernard, Educational Workers, International Museum and Library of Music, Bologna For children, the early years are a fundamental stage for learning and for the development of their potential. When they are born, children have an innate disposition to learn the musical language, which can be developed if they find themselves in a stimulating environment of sounds. The workshop - inspired by the most important theories on musical learning - is centred on making music together. Thanks to the use of chants and songs, dan- ces, rhythmic games and body percussions, we will analyse the techniques, me- thods, repertoires and criteria for observing the musical styles and patterns when working with the very young. Saturday, February 23rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m.

A BOOK IS A CLASS with Manuela Marchesan, le Magnifiche Editrici, Bologna We will approach the world of books and the art of creating books; we will explore the use of graphic tools, the creation of the project-book and the manipulation of a number of supports, and everything will take place in a playful and free way. Special attention will be paid to exploring how we can turn this experience into practice at school. Saturday, February 23rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. CURTAIN OF LIGHT - From caterpillar to butterfly with Luciano Cendou, actor and technician and Valeria Frabetti, actress and di- rector, Bologna A body is a body, a white canvas is a white canvas and a light is a light. But if the body, the white canvas and the light move in the space together with other bodies and other lights, then we can create a little theatrical drama. What we propose is not a workshop on shadows, but a theatrical game in which movement, big white canvases and lights interact to turn an empty space into one full of feelings and images. A butterfly enveloped in its cocoon flies to the skies and towards the light... Saturday, February 23rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. DANCE AS A CULTURAL AND ARTISTIC ELEMENT FOR CHILDREN with Omar Meza Frías, dancer and choreographer, Granada In the workshop, we will carry out a theoretical analysis of shows for early years – in particular, dance shows - and we will aim at developing the consciousness of our body as a means of expression and education. We will start from a discussion about the importance of cultural activities for very young children, and we will eventually focus on movement. This work will be experienced by the participants on their own skin, because only in this way will they be able to provide the children with a similar experience. Saturday, February 23rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. - Sunday, February 24th h 10.30 a.m.-1.30 p.m.

14 Workshops SOUNDS THAT MOVE THE SCENE with Bruno Cappagli, actor and director, Bologna The workshop will be centred on music and theatre, two worlds that have always gone hand in hand and influenced one another. Here, we will experience music as a “starting engine” for theatrical creation. In this practical workshop, our listen- ing skills will be put to the test, and music will be considered as a starting point for creation: from an introduction on which music to choose for theatre plays, to the interaction between music and performers through the practice of improvisation. Sunday, February 24th h 10.30 a.m.-1.30 p.m. Structuring Dramatic Play Activities with Young Ai Choi, lecturer at Korea National University of Arts, Department of Theatre Dramatic play is at the root of drama/theatre for children, which is “the mental act of imaginative transformation.” In this workshop, the participants will experi- ence the dramatic structure of ‘Hide and Seek’ (or ‘Lost and Found’) in theatre games, poems, and literature. The abstract ideas or concepts in drama/theatre activities will be explored: To challenge, to accept changes, to live different lives, to keep a secret, to endure, and etc. A genuine play-spirit within the structure of dramatic play will stimulate innate tension in our body/mind and release emo- tion. This experience is spontaneous and natural to human beings. It will enhance dramatic experience through our body/mind in culture and take this experience to life as a metaphor. Sunday, February 24th h 2.30-5.30 p.m TICKLING THE SHOULDERS AND WHAT CHILDREN’S LITERATURE IS NOT with Milena Bernardi and Giorgia Grilli, Department of Science of Education, University of Bologna The workshop is aimed at exploring the nature of children’s literature, as it enclos- es the literary inspiration of the stories that, somehow ambiguously, are addressed to children but come from adults. They are stories that populate a metaphoric, elusive “middle world”, open to other endless worlds and unexplored visions. We will investigate texts, words and pictures and we will ask ourselves what children’s literature is and is not, and whether it has the surprising strength of “otherness” that, alone, reveals the complexity of the world. Sunday, February 24th h 2.30-5.30 p.m AND WE’LL CHANT OUR RELIEF with Germana Giannini, researcher in Anthropology of Voice, Bologna/Seville A collective and creative action experienced through chants, songs and melo- dies of different cultures. Breath supports sound, taking it to the areas of reso- nance of our body; vibrations create emotions and surprise, sometimes tears and sense of unity. The chants, songs and melodies will give our soul relief, and by in- vestigating how our vocal dimension works we will share moments of art and life. Saturday, March 2nd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. - Sunday, March 3rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. DRAWINGS SIGN AND SIGNS DRAW with Enrico Montalbani and Fabio Galanti, actors and set designers, Bologna In the workshop, we will explore the different connections between gestures and drawings. We will focus on how movements can be translated into figures and vice- versa, and on how feelings and suggestions can emerge thanks to this experience. The participants will be invited to go back in time and space, to when our hand tried to represent the world of grown-ups with simple signs and aesthetic concepts

15 Workshops were completely disregarded. The workshop aims at discovering a language that can be applied and used both in theatre and drawing, and that can serve as a new stimulus for those who work with children. Saturday, March 2nd h 2.30-5.30 p.m WOOL with Barbara Kölling, director, Hamm In her shows, Barbara Kölling often uses different kinds of materials: wood, water, sand, paper, earth, stones... This time, the material to be explored is wool. What kind of feelings can wool evoke? How can you actually interact with it? What can you do with it alone, in pairs or in a group? And how does this material guide us to use it in one way or in another? It is a workshop to discover the hun- dreds of experiences you can have with wool. Saturday, March 2nd h 2.30-5.30 p.m HERE AND NOW with Yutaka Takei, dancer and choreographer, Yutaka Takei’s work is based primarily on the research on Japanese martial arts and Eastern philosophy: the concepts of body and spirit are put on stage in his live shows. At the centre of this research, there is the consciousness of the body and the self: we can always take one step further on our long journey and find that we can live in harmony with nature. In today’s society, we are too busy with too many things every day of our life. So let us try to forget them and, little by little, let ourselves go to the feelings our body conveys. Let us forget the past and not think about the future: it is enough to live every moment with honesty. Let us find a truth and share it, here and now. Sunday, March 3rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. CREATING LANDSCAPES WITH OUR BODY with Gabriele Marchioni, actor and director, Bologna Our body can tell, imagine, reveal hidden stories and places even without words. This workshop is an occasion to explore our expressiveness. Thanks to exercises and improvisation, we will focus on our body and its unexplored possibilities, to turn it into a means of storytelling, able to evoke images and situations, without how’s and why’s. Sunday, March 3rd h 2.30-5.30 p.m.

16 Workshops Intensive workshops (6 hours) SIGNS AND DRAWINGS OF LIFE A journey through children’s graphic and pictorial language with Silvia Spadoni, lecturer in Pedagogy and Didactics of Art, Academy of Fine Arts, Bologna and curator of the Educational Department of MAMbo - Museum of Modern Art of Bologna The workshop combines theoretical analysis with performative activities, aiming at rediscovering the sense and value of children’s drawing starting from connections with contemporary art, aesthetics and phenomenological pedagogy. The topics treated will be: the origin of children’s drawing and its development, the connections between the children’s creative processes and those that character- ise the artistic productions of adults. The workshop will also provide an insight on the different approaches and methods of interaction between children and educa- tors starting from the following subjects: I draw, therefore I am: the need to leave traces of ourselves; Walking the world, walking on the sheet: motor development and scribbles; To draw is to tell with signs and words; To draw is to tell something about ourselves: from the presentation to the representation of one’s self; the ex- pressive and plastic value of aniconic art; A matter of space: from a white sheet as a space for projection, to walls as display areas. Sunday, February 24th h 10.30 a.m.-1.30 p.m. and h 2.30-5.30 p.m. SOCIO-COMICAL EDUCATION with André Casaca, clown, actor and director – artistic and pedagogic director of Teatro C’art circo arte ricerca, Castelfiorentino (FI) The workshop aims at providing the participants with the instruments necessary for developing their own comical-expressive abilities in the relationship with children and youngsters. It is a theoretical and practical seminar on the use of our comi- cal skills in the educational approach. We will investigate how we can be comi- cal and how we can produce casual comical gestures. When connected to the comical aspect of gestures, communication is effective because it is direct and elementary, but it can, at the same time, be very complex and ambiguous. The practical activities proposed involve basic exercises on our comical spontaneity and aim at making the participants recognise the intentions hidden in their ges- tures when communicating with children and young people. Saturday, March 2nd h 2.30-5.30 p.m. and Sunday, March 3rd h 10.30 a.m.-1.30 p.m. GETTING the body in the game Theatrical workshop for big and small sensitive bodies with Miriam Bardini, actress, Parma Workshops are very good occasions to explore what is “other than ourselves”: other bodies, other sensibilities, other emotional and sensory dimensions, other smells, other voices, other rhythms... The body will be at the centre of our work: each body has a unique expressive force. The real protagonist will therefore be our body, and we will aim at achieving a deep involvement from both a physical and emotional point of view in order to listen carefully to what happens inside of us: feelings, emotions, thoughts. Special attention will be paid to the work carried out as a group. Thanks to theatrical exercises, we will explore special aspects such as: listening, the perception of ourselves and the others, the perception of space, our body in relation to space, the sense of rhythm, attention, precision, voice, si- lence. Sunday, March 3rd h 10.30 a.m.-1.30 p.m. and h 2.30-5.30 p.m.

17 INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS Since its first edition, “Visioni di futuro, visioni di teatro” has always aimed at taking on an international dimension. Not for an issue of prestige, but because of a natural aversion to frontiers, boundaries and barriers. Thanks to Small size’s networking activity, the festival has always tri- ed to involve artists and professionals from many countries, throu- gh its international showcase and several research and training projects: the Small size workshops, the international conferences, the meetings of the Artistic International Association Small size, the 2009 “Assitej Fo- rum”... In this edition, along with the usual conferences and meetings, the Festival will fe- ature new, interesting international projects. These are special projects, born in collaboration with important Universities, such as the Master Class on Cultural Policy for Early Years and two studies presented by the “Korea National University of Arts” students. There are also projects IN progress, such as Africa meets Europe meets Theatre for Children and The ASSITEJ Academy - A laboratory for the future of The- atre for Young Audiences, that will create new relationships and encounters aimed at drawing the basis for a future development of Theatre for Children...

19 CONFERENces and round tables FROM THE CITY TO THE WORLD... During Visioni 2012, on the occasion of a beautiful conference, Roger Bedard focused on an idea: that children are human beings and not human becomings. We think these words draw a very clear image. Children are not incomplete humans of tomorrow, but full humans at any age, complete in their own specialness. They are complete human beings with whom to have an individual-to-individual relationship. They are citizens who, since their early years, have the right to live fully the physical and imaginative space that art and culture can offer them, while sharing a condition of closeness and belonging with adults. Closeness with the others and with their thoughts, in a peaceful society. Belonging to a space, to a people, to a city that opens to the world.
