THEATRE AND SCHOOLS
|
It is necessary to demystify
the arts, stimulate the taste for the theater and critical sense of
youth.
It's been ten years since Theatre Montemuro began to invite schools to
visit Espaço Montemuro. The project has grown and the number of schools
that integrate this activity grows from year to year to live this
experience. The company makes this kind of theatrical experience so than
young do not just watch a show on stage but make them to think, form
opinions about the show and express them in words, actions , images or
sounds.
This initiative aims to show the reality of the theater to new audiences,
young people, showing and explaining the creative process, since the
creation of the text, props, till the moment it’s presented to the
public, all in a very intense day hat begins with the presentation of
the piece. The discussion about the project between actors, director,
students and teachers is followed by a visit to the various departments:
backstage, offices, storage, technical parts. After a lunch break, the
afternoon work begins with several games, exploring the dramatic
expression. The workshop ends with a presentation of games, exercises
and improvisations made by the students.
For many young people who come to our village this is the first contact
they have with the theater, for others, it’s now an usual visit.
Teatro do Montemuro wants to continue to work to strengthen this mission
(and duty) of public service. |
