Scène ouverte à thème : "Profondément humain"
Quand l'art fait corps avec la philosophie ! Les scènes ouvertes sont l'occasion d'exprimer l'artiste qui se cache en soi : danse, chant, poésie, slam... laissez parler votre artiste intérieur !
Avec nos scènes ouvertes philosophiques, nous ouvrons la scène à toutes les formes artistiques : poésie, musique, danse, théâtre, dessin… pour penser autrement, par le corps, la voix, le rythme.
Chaque rencontre part d’un thème, choisi pour nourrir la création autant que la réflexion. Ce n’est pas un concours, mais un espace libre, où chacun peut faire vibrer une idée. Nous invitons des artistes et des apprentis artistes à proposer des formes brèves qui éclairent le thème d’un regard sensible et philosophique. La scène ouverte Philo cherche moins la virtuosité que la sincérité. C’est un lieu où la pensée descend dans la chair et remonte au coeur.
Thème : **PROFONDÉMENT HUMAIN**
Date : dimanche 7 mars
Horaire : 17h45
Lieu : La Passerelle, 26 rue de Crussol, 75011
Contact : lapasserelle75011@gmail.com

Organizer : Lee
Time : 10:30 am – 12:30 pm
Price : 10€ (billetterie sur place)

Play, Connect and Improv - Beginner Workshop
Come learn the fundamentals of improv theatre! Yes and, supporting your scene partner, listening all while having lots of fun.
Improv (improvisation) is a playful practice where you explore spontaneity, creativity, and collaboration. It helps you be more present and connect with others while having fun. Simply put, it’s playtime for adults.
Through a series of progressive exercises, you’ll learn the basics of improv: active listening, saying “yes, and,” trusting your impulses and ideas, and supporting your partners. Step by step, you’ll use these tools to create short scenes - no acting experience required.
We started our improv troop over 1 year ago and play in Paris regularly. Our troop is made up of expats from all around the world and this is why we are Foreign Exchanged ;)

Theater : emotion and self-confidence
(Exeptionnellement à 10h30 😬)
Je m’appelle Kenza et je fais du théâtre depuis 14 ans. J’ai créé cet atelier parce que j’adore voir des gens découvrir le plaisir de jouer, se surprendre eux-mêmes, et surtout... passer un bon moment ensemble.
Nous aurons la chance de pratiquer dans une grande salle équipée de miroirs, un cadre idéal pour l'expression corporelle.
Ici, pas besoin d’expérience : c’est un atelier débutant–amateur, pensé pour t’accompagner en douceur. On explore l’impro, les émotions, la présence, la créativité... toujours à travers des exercices ludiques qui donnent confiance.
Le projet ?
L'objectif est ensuite de constituer un groupe stable pour un cycle de 2 mois, afin d'évoluer, rire et tisser des liens forts ensemble. Mais il reste encore de la place pour les nouveaux, avant avant la représentation en petit comité du 15 mars.
Mon but est simple : te permettre de t’amuser tout en te développant. Si tu veux tester, te découvrir et t’épanouir dans une ambiance bienveillante... tu es le bienvenu. 🎭✨

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington.
The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.

The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit.
Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times.
Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have.
Happy writing!
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
