I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from the program, but understood that elements of movement and singing would be the underlying approaches integrated into text work as well. The mystery intrigued me and the reputation of Grotowski also drew me to the intensive. What I experienced over the 13 days was sacred and spiritual, it was theatre at its purest form and has left me forever changed as an artist. A laboratory to be brave, challenge myself and others and to constantly receive feedback on my artistic output in a non judgemental manner.

Nothing but gratitude and joy for this experience. I came in with next to zero confidence in my singing abilities, and will leave with many tools to help me harmonize, uplift, and sustain polyphonic harmonies. The physical exercises and etudes were mind and eye opening to the possibility of creating a theatre from the performance, and deriving meaning afterwards (backwards dramaturgy— something I will use in my practice moving forward). The lunches were wonderful and helped fuel the second part of our days. The instructors were genuinely thoughtful, considerate, and caring to everyone’s needs. They were also experts in the sources and practices that Teatr ZAR “preaches” (I use that word loosely). The passion from Teatr ZAR’s members is palpable— their investment in the work and process manifests itself into an environment that is loving and caring of those that enter. It was an honor getting to work alongside such amazing people! Thank you for welcoming us into your home.

ZAR Intense 2024 was an unrepeatable and unforgettable experience full of challenging but beautiful situations. The project is diverse and brings many inspirations for the artist's work. An international collective where you can find kindred artistic souls from all over the world in one place.

Walking into the unknown was a priceless gift to my spirit. As a Black woman safe space is not guaranteed. Right away I felt all fears melt away and the gentleness of the ZAR ensemble wrap their arms around us all and without hesitation I felt the entire group decide - together we will attempt to fly. What a treasure to the bone marrow, the voice, my nervous system to this machine we call BODY. What does it mean to be human? That’s what I carry from my time in Poland. That’s what I’m continuing to investigate and of course, since my encounter with ZAR that investigation will never be the same.

I absolutely love the way you work. Is incredibly inspiring and feels so free and open, it makes it easy not to judge yourself. On top of that, as facilitators you are so empathic that you create this atmosphere were everyone can feel at home. If I have to give some more insightful feedback. I think the food can be a bit lighter or have less movement after meals. Also I think Ditte's work helps a lot placing the voice, so it could be helpful for people with issues (like me) starting with her before jumping straight into singing.

One of the most important spiritual journeys for me as an artist and a human.

I had never been in a workshop so well prepared, with such good treatment, such good pedagogy and with creative development in the form of improvisations with live music

Teatr ZAR guided us on this path with great generosity, professionalism and talent.

One of the most special experiences that I ever got to live. Its beauty and power didn’t reside only in the great work that we did for 10 fulfilling days. It was also among the artists and mentors of the company Teatr ZAR. They welcomed us participants with an open heart full of kindness and passion. It truly felt like being part of a great family.

Thank you for letting me feel at home in my body and in my voice. I can definitely say that with you I found a theatrical dimension really close to the theater I would like to practice every day of my life.
