96 DANCE THEATER PEOPLE .......................................................................................................... Gözde Çerçioğlu No other Kaya (Rock Stone) would be alive as much as this. Could breathe as deep as this... Its name was Kaya (Rock Stone) but there was a smile on its face. Its lips filled with a charm that will last forever. None of us knew that the last days of July and the first days of August in 2003 summer would turn into a sweet breeze for us, which would wave for months. All of us, without having any idea of the existence of each other, gathered only under seven colours but we created a lot more colours together than a colour palette could manage. Maybe because we discovered each other. At the incredible taste of stuffed peppers (biberli dolma), at our legs tired of dancing, our neverending smile still shining despite all the dust we covered in...We discovered each other with our eyes. With our eyes thanks to which we looked through our hearts. Dance was just an innocent excuse; we let our hearts to dance. The rainbow couldn’t help herself as well, she started to move. She reached the sky and put us above the sky. All the wishes we made under the Rainbow, twinkled one after another and turned into stars, by shedding their light on our night. Our laughter under the grapevine leaves smeared onto the grapes. It made a unique taste, nowhere to be found, never to end. As I told you, Kaya has never breathed as deep as this… Deep, fresh, forever with all of us inside... DANCE THEATRE WORKSHOP .......................................................................................................... Vasiliki Antonaki (Participant in Dance Theatre workshop of KayaFest and Theatre of The Oppressed in Final Conference) Athens 11-07-2004 Capability of leaders (G.Peckan, T. Myrkou): Maximum! Most of the participants had never danced before. We managed to perform a complex performance in a five-day time! Despite difficulties in the language, true artists can speak body and heart language. Time was effectively used until the last second. We all felt that not even one minute of our workshop got lost. As for the workshop hour it should be shorter (not six hours a day for amateurs for the specific kind of workshop that demands both physical and mental strength) because as a result we could not be able to participate in other activities either because of being tired or due to lack of time. I consider the length of the workshop to be the most suitable in order not to get bored, tired or lose interest but also enough to gain and succeed aims. The amount of materials and equipment given to us was sufficient: materials for our performance, microphones and sound systems or fruit from the staff. Place of rehearsals and performance: place of rehearsals was satisfactory and problems that came up, such as no cool place to exercise were immediately solved by the competent staff. As for the performance stage and conditions of it, the performance was a bit delayed and a more stable stage was needed. Also the ground and dust around the stage was not the best thing to be done. In general all the aims of the workshop were achieved to the highest level of my expectations. Our performance had (for us first of all) the biggest success KayaFest Youth and Culture Festival Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de L’Europe
we could ever imagine. The most important achievement was that of meeting ‘’the Other side’’ through the genuine art of dance. It was a brilliant idea to put the participants of same workshop in the same house. Nothing can bring us closer to the others. A true family. As for the selection of the participants, it was the best element of the workshop that lead to success. No comments. All were unique. What I gained from my participation: Eliminate my own and others prejudice about Turkey and Turkish people. Ability to corporate with different people, to be patient Ability to negotiate, exchange, understand different ways of thinking Knowledge of Turkish culture and attitude Rearrange priorities of life Built a stronger personality, self-assurance, clear view of myself and human relationships. Feel useful, precious and unique Be realistic, to call a spade a spade. To work as member of a team Built a stable bridge for a next Greek – Turkish project To reach my limits when trying To set targets and accomplish them New aspect of European projects and European exchange in general Believe in the power of young people To be on time! To love my p.c. To dance Good moments Some knowledge of Turkish, some pictures and videos, some memories, some friends and some brothers. THE BLACK PAGE (What went wrong?) Problems in transportation (one more day in Fethiye, a bigger bus maybe) no treatment for the rest part of KayaFest ( problems with the tents, no Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de L’Europe water, more workshops for more people) too hard program (no time to rest) Not ready enough to handle emergency situations. KAYAFEST & VASSILIKI It’s always here. Present and ideal. Words are for first time so little to describe it. …5,6,7,8, GO! Travelling again. A bit anxious, a bit tired. Kayaköy. Ideal view. First night in the tents. Hot. No water. Oh Maria. Exhausted. But that magic hand called you to stay there. You had to obey for a reason. Who could imagine what was going to happen. I met some Greeks there. Great guys. They didn’t know how to speak Greek, they didn’t live in Greece, they didn’t know Greek history - who does. I met some Greek friends there. We didn’t speak Greek, Turkish or English. We communicated in a fourth language. Our language. A beautiful house, beautiful people. I was there and suddenly I was dancing “Dance as nobody is there to see you”. I looked the others in the eyes. I got tied with them. So WE were tired, hurt, injured. We stayed late at night singing. We changed our dreams into reality. I fell down and I grabbed their arm to survive. And I managed to get up again. Because there was an aim there. A common one. And it was the first time I met them. Imagine… the first… Time stopped. There. I didn’t have to explain. They had already all the explanations… They took me from the hand and led me. We all together touched the ground and jumped so high to catch the sky. We wore hypothetical masks and sat on hypothetical chairs and we smelled hypothetical flowers. But it was a true strong smell because all we realized it was true. If one tells there is not a flower then there isn’t.
