Event information
RITUALS OF THE SOUL is created with a movement research method called DEEP LISTENING. The practice is discovered through the rituals of the creative process. This research explores the invisible layers of the human being, through: deep listening in movement, conscious presence and invisible communication.
‘Rituals of the Soul’ is an emotional meeting that often brings hugs or tears to the participants. Audience members are drawn back to witness and experience the performance again and again.
Duration: +/-1 hour
Rituals of the Soul is supported by Ministry of Culture and National Culture Fund in Bulgaria
