Anna-Katharina has been in touch with the Acting Technique of Michael Chekhov since 20 years. As a long term researcher and director, Anna-Katharina has evolved the technique for the use in contemporary circus.She is interested in what lies behind the obvious. Her approach is very individual. She works with the whole group, but pays attention to each individual and responds to individual needs and wishes. Anna-Katharina supports performers to find images and tools to feel free and creative on stage and to enjoy with a feeling of ease their own creation.
