 nGet Weird With Wrestling – Qspace workshop\\nDecember 17 @ 6:30 pm - 8
 :30 pm\\nSign up\\nThe Spectacular Body: A Weekly Exploration of Queer Wr
 estling and Camp Performance\\nWelcome to a weekly laboratory in Warehous
 e9’s Qspace\\, where we explore the wrestling ring as a site of radical
  theatricality. When we step into the arena of hyper-expressive movement\
 \, the body becomes a canvas for our wildest imaginations. Inspired by th
 e rich history of camp performance\\, melodrama\\, and physical comedy\\,
  this workshop invites you to discover and create spectacular alter-egosâ
 €”personas that open up new spaces for collective joy\\, intimacy\\, and 
 community play.\\nPRACTICAL INFORMATION\\nTime: Thursdays\\, 18:30–20:3
 0 (please arrive 10 minutes early)\\nMeeting point: Warehouse9\\, Rosenlu
 nds Allé 5 (Baghuset)\\, 2720 Vanløse\\nWho can join?: Open to all bodi
 es\\, fitness levels\\, and identities. No prior wrestling or acting expe
 rience is required. Strictly 18+\\nLanguage: English (or Danish/English d
 epending on the group).\\nWhat to bring: Please wear comfortable clothing
  that you can easily move in\\, a water bottle\\, and a clean pair of ind
 oor shoes (trainers/sneakers) to protect the floor.\\nHow to join: Sign u
 p via the button at the top of the page\\nThroughout the weekly sessions\
 \, we will:\\nMaster the art of gravity and the spectacular fall: Falling
  is not just a necessity\\; it is a grand narrative gesture. We will brea
 k down the physical techniques of the “bump\\,” learning how to distr
 ibute impact safely across the body\\, land with confidence\\, and transf
 orm a sudden drop into a moment of breathtaking theatrical suspense.\\nEm
 body the mechanics of physical illusion: We will practice safe\\, foundat
 ional stage combat and wrestling movements. You will learn the geometry o
 f the ring\\, how to share weight safely with a partner\\, and how to exe
 cute stylized\\, high-energy movements with total control and bodily awar
 eness.\\nMaster the sensory language of “the sell”: How does a body c
 ommunicate impact through pure theater? We will dissect the timing\\, rhy
 thm\\, and exaggerated gestures needed to make a fictional collision look
  hilariously high-stakes\\, turning a simple reaction into a grand narrat
 ive moment.\\nDraw inspiration from archetypes and storylines: From the t
 ragic\\, over-the-top heroes of classic soap operas to the chaotic brilli
 ance of comedic wildcards\\, we will learn how to build fictional backsto
 ries and larger-than-life personas.\\nExplore materials\\, gestures\\, an
 d sensations: How can a sequin\\, a dramatic pause\\, a grand entrance\\,
  or an exaggerated gasp become a sanctuary for expression? Participants a
 re encouraged to build\\, discover\\, and experiment with physical presen
 ce and creative costuming.\\nTake part in vocal and character exercises: 
 We will pause to play with the microphone\\, practicing the art of theatr
 ical trash-talking and crowd work rooted entirely in comedy\\, imaginatio
 n\\, and playful energy.\\nThese sessions are an open invitation to see p
 hysical performance with new eyes. Come as you are\\, and together we can
  create vibrant\\, joyful pauses within our everyday realities.\\nABOUT T
 HE FACILITATORS\\nKFWS works with sensory\\, physical\\, and participator
 y performance unfolding within queer community spaces. Their practice exp
 lores how temporary characters and spectacular narratives emerge through 
 encounters between chaos\\, imagination\\, and the body. Drawing inspirat
 ion from theatrical wrestling\\, camp aesthetics\\, and collaborative pla
 y\\, they create situations where people and movement collectively reimag
 ine performance anew—allowing relational and fluid identities space to 
 evolve.\\nA central point of departure in this work is a care for collect
 ive joy and creative freedom—using the ring not as a site of ego\\, but
  as an aesthetic foundation for laughter and community.\\nQuestions? For 
 more info you can write [email protected].\\nAccess Information\\nWarehou
 se9 has level free entrance to the space and a gender neutral accessible 
 toilet that can be accessed via a certified stairlift.\\nAll events at Wa
