I believe you have seen movies, but perhaps you have never attended a live theater performance. Theater performances are different from film performances; they are more exaggerated, more symbolic, and place greater emphasis on the interaction between people and space. Here, delicate emotions are amplified through the body, and a meticulous stage is built upon the perceptions between individuals, with ups and downs controlled by the body. Here, the person is everything. In this elective course, I will take you to experience theatrical performance through drama games. We will gradually learn to mobilize our senses through several drama trainings, similar to childhood games, learning to feel the connection with others and learn to feel control over our bodies. Finally, we will unleash and explode our imagination, creating a picture and a short play.
