The programme
Students research, explore, and rehearse a monologue or scene from the classical or contemporary anglophone repertoire.
Students create a collective piece based on a central theme chosen by the instructor. Drawing on research, improvisation, and imagination, the group develops an original work. The use of a wide range of artistic media as sources of inspiration is encouraged (theatre, novels, photography, painting, exhibitions, music, cinema, etc.).
An individual progress report is sent to parents at the end of each term.
