Who is on stage?
theater workshop in Italian
Theatrical activity means reading texts, discussing their meaning, working on them to reflect on themselves, stage them and get involved. Theater is a simple but very effective tool, which not only allows you to learn something new, but also gives you the opportunity to express yourself, even through a new language. That's why we decided to combine the practice of the Italian language with theatrical work. Our goal is precisely to emphasize the educational value of the theater, together with the importance of the Italian language, using the stage space to bring out the stories of the theater seen through the eyes of the participants. In fact, the theater workshop focuses on creativity, the ability to work in a group and its educational value.
Purpose of the theater workshop:
The purpose of the workshop is the realization and staging of a real theatrical show following these fundamental aspects:
Develop bodily and vocal expressiveness;
Learn to develop sensory skills (observe, listen, etc.);
Deepen the knowledge of the Italian language;
Encourage group work and creativity, individual and collective; ​
