### NEXT Festival ? Ritual performances
? Saturday 08 & Sunday 09 November
_Erste Schritte zu den Schwellen_ ("First steps to the threshold")
Discover an immersive ritual performance created by choreographer Zwoisy Mears-Clarke, in which a masked group moves slowly and rhythmically to the sound of the bells on their colorful costumes.
What begins as a procession through the streets becomes a collective experience that subtly reduces the distance between people. Step by step, Zwoisy unmasks age-old colonial traditions and paves the way for an inclusive society.
Saturday: 1:30pm and 3:30pm
Sunday: 3:00 pm
(Running time: 45 min)

The NEXT festival and lille 3000 are launching a call for participation for amateurs wishing to join choreographer Zwoisy Mears-Clarke's performance _Erste Schritte zu den Schwellen_ ("First steps towards the threshold").
