CS likes to gather artists from various territories and backgrounds, each with his/her own pace
Each step these nomads make together, either ephemeral or a sustainable one, brings creative energy to the fields of performance, education and production. This collective offers a contained space where its participants can develop their work. The common language and methodology used by CS is "improvisa
tion". Improvisation is the means by which participants can meet each other on a common ground. CS currently organizes workshops, classes and jams in Phnom Penh. Collaborations/projects in 2012 & 2013 :

WHERE YOU COME FROM
Street Cabaret
In a cold cold winter
a mother, father and two little girls
started off for a long trip. Nothing more but two big bags,
was all they could carry
on the road far from home. But they needed no more
for it was hot and sweaty
under the banana palm tree. In a new land
it happened that
the guitar learned new songs
the adventures went along with new movements
and thoughts became as big as never before
A deep reflection of Europe and the world in 30 minutes. www.sosh-international.com

OSONO/MORADOKMAI Theatre groups
From Romania and Thailand
CARNIVAL
A small & beautiful performance from a collaboration between 2 theatre troupes from 2 different parts of the world; Moradokmai Theatre Troupe, Thailand & Oshono Theatre Group, Romania. It's the story of something in common among human beings in a world of capitalism. No matter which part of the world they live, they can not avoid confrontation of ignorance or the condition without knowledge and losing of one's self. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMVL-nw5cwg
