Students working with theatre, characters and performance

From improvisation to a scene

The group tries theatre exercises, develops characters and decides what a short scene or story should be about.

A larger production requires a separate format with enough time for writing, rehearsal and agreed responsibilities.

What students work on

  • improvisation and active listening
  • character, conflict and plot
  • voice, body and space
  • teamwork and feedback
