Course objectives (in Czech)
The main idea is to create a cooperative group of students from different fields of the performing arts who will, together with the teacher and in cooperation with other classmates and teachers, produce a piece of theatre comparable to a professional theatre production. Each semester will be ended with one unique theatrical production. An existing dramatic text will not be a starting point of the process. The topic and the genre of the piece will be decided by the members of the class during the lessons. All of the students will perform in the final performance. The production will be created as an authorial theatrical piece. This way, the students will get a chance to produce their own work from the beginning (exercises, improvisation, writing) till the end (the performance in front of a live audience). Cooperation of the students and the teacher is crucial for the whole process. The teacher will focus on two main areas that he combines in his own professional theatre practice: physical theatre and writing.
Learning outcomes (in Czech)

Teaching methods (in Czech)
