When we play, anything is possible: the floor is made of lava, objects fly through the air and everyday items take on a whole new meaning. The stool is a raft, a bridge, a house, a tower. It stands on its head, lies on its side, stands on its feet… From an almost infinite selection of possibilities, new worlds with their own sets of rules emerge playfully, and they are repeatedly changed, expanded, discarded.

But how does one game lead to the next? Who decides what happens next? Who makes the rules and how do you make the best decision? And what happens if someone doesn’t want to take part?’

Ceren Oran & Moving Borders was created by Ceren Oran, Karolína Hejnová and a core collective of artists with the belief that contemporary dance can and should be accessible for everyone as an art form and as a practice.

With this in mind, the company’s creative work focuses on public space performances, dance for young audiences, durational performances, and many other performance formats of audience encounters. The company and its artistic director Ceren Oran are based in Munich/Germany since 2015, and contain a broad international profile of dancers, musicians, and stage designers.
