When the bleeding stops but we won’t
The topic of menopause still seems to be surrounded by silence; therefore, a lack of information remains.
Given the importance of the body in the performance scene, this evening addresses questions about empowerment and education. What happens to bodies during menopause? How is it dealt with on stage? How can a safe environment be created and supported? The panel discussion brings together an artist and a psychologist/psychotherapist to propose informative perspectives on menopause and challenge taboos.
Hosted by Leonie Frühe und Mathea Mierl.
