Course description
In the first part of the lessons, we deal with improvisations aimed at the development of perception, readiness, communication and also the understanding of the basic dramaturgical elements that make up a scene, as students through improvisations try to create a complete one-act play with characters, relationships, plot, atmosphere.
In the second part of the lessons we approach contemporary texts from the world repertoire using the method of Sanford Meisner. Through a series of exercises we discover and work on the relationships between the persons of the project. With Meisner’s method, students try to structure a theatrical scene based on the communication and relationships of their characters and discover how the elements of a performance are interconnected with the interpretation of their “teammate” based on real reactions and organic functions.
