Drama Club is. starting again in 2025! This club is designed for anyone passionate about. theatre and. eager to explore the. world of drama, whether you're a beginner or have some experience. What is the Drama. Club?

The Drama Club is a
creative community where participants can immerse themselves in all aspects

of theatre. Our
journey begins with Module 1, exploring our bodies and the non-verbal communication.
In Module 2 we will focus on presence on stage and creativity. Module 3, we'll explore
the "3 P's of a scene: People, Place, and Problem". Module 4 is the
time to work with text, and finally, in Module 5, we'll create small scenes and
potentially perform them for a small audience.

Module 1 - (Mondays
at Türkis) 20, 27/01 & 03/02 - Non-Verbal Communication

Explore the body's
expressive potential. We will engage in exercises focusing on attention,
listening, rhythm, and connection to overcome fears and language barriers. In a
supportive, judgment-free atmosphere, the participants will learn to let go,
embrace vulnerabilities, and connect with others through physical expression.

Teacher: Marika Rocca

Module 2 - (Mondays
at Türkis) 10, 17 & 24/02 - Exploring presence through movement

What makes an actor truly present on stage? How can a
performer sustain the audience's interest throughout a performance? These are
central questions explored in the Drama Club module 2, which is thoughtfully
designed to lay the foundation for a successful theater experience. This module
will emphasize self-confidence, trust, and the understanding of the performance
space, fellow participants, and their own abilities.

Teacher: Juliana
Appel

Module 3 - (Mondays
at Türkis) 03, 10, & 17/03 - Setting the Scene: People, Place, Problem

For 3 weeks we will
dive deep into one of the "3 P's of a Scene: People, Place, and Problem".
"People" focuses on character development, status & relationships, and
classic character archetypes. "Place" explores spatial awareness, object work,
and using the imaginary environment as inspiration.

"Problem" emphasizes
scene structure, objectives & obstacles, and the journey of conflict
resolution.

Teacher: Will
Hightower

Module 4 - (Mondays
at Türkis, except 31/03 that will be at FO-BYEN) 24, 31/03 - & 07/04 - Scene

Study - Let's dive
into scenes from classic and contemporary authors with the concept that

" Everything you need is in the text."

We'll reflect on the
themes within the pieces, considering the historical context in which they were

written, while
exploring each character's objectives and their relationships. Through dramatic

readings, individual
and group work, we'll bring these scenes to life.

Teacher: Ana Luiza
Ulsig

Module 5 - (Mondays
at Türkis - except 28/04 & 05/05 that will be at FO-BYEN) 28/04 + 05, 12,
19

& 26/05

Devising and
presentation - In this module, you will be ready to apply all skills you got from
the previous module. We are going to connect text and bodywork and create small
scenes to be performed on the last day of the workshop.

Teachers: Juliana
Appel and Ana Luiza Ulsig

But this is not all...
In September, we'll continue with Theatre Production.
