 se rope community steps into the spotlight. It’s an evening of experime
 ntation\\, courage\\, creativity\\, and connection — whether it’s som
 eone’s very first time on stage or their twentieth shibari showcase.\\n
 The programme for this Sunday’s (R)open Stage is here!\\nThree performa
 nces exploring what happens when we let rope change the way we relate to 
 our bodies\\, to each other\\, and to ourselves. From discovering trust a
 nd growing together\\, to questioning our relationship with our own bodie
 s\\, to revisiting connections and shifting familiar roles.\\nI. Oskar & 
 Max\\nA 6 month rope anniversary performance. Oscar and Max first explore
 d rope together just days before the previous (R)open Stage. Six months o
 f learning and practising have since brought them closer through trust\\,
  vulnerability and shared challenges. This performance celebrates their c
 onnection and marks the beginning of a new chapter.\\nII. Ceci Ferox\\nIn
  Transformations\\, Ceci Ferox presents a solo performance exploring thei
 r relationship with their body as an object. Through rope and movement\\,
  they investigate the shifting boundaries between body\\, identity and tr
 ansformation.\\nIII. Renée de Sans & Liebre Azul\\nA return to Between P
 ink and Blue\\, the performance where Renée de Sans and Liebre Azul firs
 t met in Bogotá. Reunited in Berlin\\, they revisit its improvised dynam

 ection has evolved.\\nThree perspectives\\, three very different approach
 es\\, one shared stage. We’re excited to see you there!\\nFacilitator\\
