About Freifall

Freifall was founded by Verena Schneider in 2018 with the aim of developing interdisciplinary projects focused on circus, dance, and performance. The association produces, supports and curates projects working across disciplines to advance the emerging field of contemporary circus. Freifall is based in Vienna (Austria) but operates internationally, with a particular focus on developing projects in Austria and France.

Furthermore, the association strives to connect acrobatics, dance, and installation with intellectual disciplines such as sociology, literature, landscape architecture, and ecology. This is achieved by working with various formats, including collaborations, stage productions, workshops and different forms of site-specific curation.

 

Cie Kumquat – the collaborative project between Charlotte Le May and Verena Schneider – represents a major milestone for Freifall, as with it the first long-term artistic partnership and development of a stage piece and satellit projects  came to fruition successfully.

Artistic Direction: Verena Schneider, Charlotte Le May
Artistic Collaboration in various projects: Jana Kilbertus, Alexander Iwanov, Tobias Dankl, Martina Stapf, Florinda Fürst, Sarah Sternat
