Kubur is an Indonesian theater group which has been active in Jakarta for over thirty years now. The plays are currently written by Yustiansyah Lesmana, student and director of the group, and are telling about the life in the 28 million metropolis.
Haifa, Ratu, Diah, Saring and Hendra are the current line-up of the group and worked throughout the last year on cultural diversity through improvisations and intense rehearsals - the result is a 60 minutes' play which has its premiere in Jakarta by the end of may.
To avoid language barriers, the whole play is non-dialogue - everything is done by music, dance and body language.

Association Akhtar
We want to create a space where dance enthusiasts - professionals or amateurs - can meet and enrich the practice of their art through these exchanges.
Thus, we wish to establish a dance studio in Geneva that which will serve as a meeting venue, host our activities - conferences, workshops - and will welcome in optimal conditions Romandie artists who need a place to create or rehearse.
Creation for Douban
Mirjam Sutter
From December 21 to January 4, 2018, I was invited to Jerusalem to create a choreography with the local dance company DOUBAN. The company under the artistic direction of dancer Hanna Tams was founded in 2013 with the aim to promote professional dance of the Palestinian youth and to establish common grounds with other cultures within our world. The choreography will be part of the full-length show "SALAL", which will be performed in January 2018 in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Nazareth and Ramallah. The main sponsor of the Company is the Collège des Frères de La Salle of Jerusalem (CdF) and a handful of individuals who believe in and support the idea of DOUBAN. The company provides me travel and accommodation, but is not financially able to pay me a salary. For this purpose, I am now addressing you and you have the opportunity to support me and my work with DOUBAN Dance Company. It is important for me to be able to continue my work in Palestine, which started in 2011, and to support the dancers in their efforts for professionalism and development.

We are dedicated to leaving no student behind, and to continue serving Witikon and the surrounding community. To make this possible, we need your support.
