The moment has arrived!
The Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre’s international Master’s program in Contemporary Physical Performance Making (CPPM) welcomed a packed audience for “Here We Are Now,” a one-time event marking the beginning of the program’s highly anticipated Spring Season 2025.
This special evening introduced the third CPPM cohort—16 students hailing from 13 different countries—who collectively demonstrated a vibrant tapestry of artistic perspectives. The new cohort includes Ana Trif (Romania), Anette Pärn (Estonia), Charis Taplin (UK), Clarisse Degeneffe (Belgium), Daniel Ortiz Amézquita (Colombia), Dita Lūriņa (Latvia), Edward Skaines (Australia), Elar Vahter (Estonia), Jeson Joy (India), Juuli Hyttinen (Finland), Leah Gayer (Germany/UK), Maarja Tosin (Estonia), Maria Papachristodoulou (Greece), Avery Gerhardt (USA), Oskar Moore (Latvia), and Zhenyan Ding (China).
Throughout the evening, these new students stepped into the public eye for the first time—both as individual performers and as a unified ensemble—showcasing the diverse artistry that will define their journey in the CPPM program. In addition, details were unveiled about the Spring Season’s upcoming events: open classes, lectures, workshops, and the ever-popular Expromt evenings.
With a whole house cheering them on, the new cohort’s first performance radiated excitement and possibility, setting the stage for a very exciting season, event of which can be found at www.cppm.ee
