Roma Armee



The eleventh grade of the Carlo Schmid School went to the Maxim Gorki Theater on the 22 September 2018. We watched a play "Roma Armee", which is about the discrimination of the "Sinti and Roma" minority in Europe. On the 8 October 2018 the main actor and director Sandra Selimovic came to our school to deliver a workshop. We did warm-up lessons about prejudice and thought about new perspectives on racism, violence or prejudice.
Later, we did a different body and move exercises with different emotions and music. We "fought" in teams first in slow motion and staged a fashion show where the other students had to guess which body part we wanted to exercise. In the last part of the workshop, we improvised a scene on a park bench. The task was to evict a person with gestures. Every figure had their own "character". In the end, we decided that the workshop was instructive. We learned how to be free and how to open up to others.
