Telaboratoria is a free of charge social and creative dance and theatre improvisation program for the Russian LGBTQ+ communities to heal and empower. We are mainly based in St. Petersburg, Russia but offer classes and workshops in the regions of Russia as well.
Telaboratoria makes space for collective empowerment, collaboration, empathy and visibility. It strives to support Russian LGBTQ+ adults in finding the connection to their bodies, community building and becoming more actively involved citizens. After the federal enforcement of the infamous 'anti-gay' law in 2013 it is even harder for trans and queer Russians to feel safe and welcomed in their own country.
The program provides space for the LGBTQ+ communities to become engaged physically, emotionally and socially in a harsh transphobic and homophobic environment of Russia.

Tarocco: A Soldier's Tale (2016 SE Tour)
The Italian tradition of the Comedia dell’arte grows strange wings in Tarocco: A Soldier’s Tale– a mesmerizing fusion of circus arts, dance, mask-and-puppet theater, original music, elaborate costumes, and lushly animated video. Tarocco tells the story of an Italian WWI infantryman, trapped behind enemy lines after barely escaping the gas attacks at Caporetto. To pass the time, the soldier comforts a dying comrade with stories using the images from an ancient deck of playing cards known as the Tarocco Piemontese (a predecessor of modern Tarot cards). What follows is a spellbinding narrative based on the power of the human imagination.
