Course objectives
The main idea is to create a cooperative group of students in different fields of the performing arts who will, together with the main teacher and in co-operation with classmates and teachers, produce a piece of theatre comparable to a professional theatre production. The other priority objective is educational, of course; the complex process of learning – theoretical as well as practical – and theoretical concepts are of equal importance.
Syllabus
  • Author’s performance in unusual theatre space Together with international students we will create an author’s performance connected to their home country and family. The script will consist in assembling of several short texts with similar topic, which will be prepared by students themselves. We will try to find a meaning and significance of these topics; we will deal with cultural differences, which may occur in the comparison of texts. The performance, whose form will be inspired for example by street and site specific theatre, will be presented in the corridors of the Theatre Faculty JAMU at the end of autumn term 2015/2016.
