Following the successful first edition of the kaleidoscope last year, the program’s focus this year is on four projects by German-speaking artists, including two world premieres:

The Viennese company in_tensegrity celebrates the premiere of their aerial acrobatic piece »hochSpannung« as part of the kaleidoscope, which shows the two artists Carmen Raffaella Küster and Gernot Bitschi on an walk between manipulation, dependency as well as intimacy and trust. Ralph Öllinger, who presented his graduation number of the at the Winterfest 2016, shows a part of his solo “The Madman”, which was created in 2017, and shares the stage with Ariane & Roxana, who charm with their foot juggling piece “play nice”. True to the motto “support your local artist”, the youmg membres of MOTA are back on the Winterfeststage. With a core group of nine children and young people, they have developed their first stage play. Audience discussions, a film screening and an exhibition also give the opportunity to look at the subject of circus from different angles.
