Course history

Introduction

Different forms of work and documentation are used in the programme. Theoretical subject matter will primarily be taught through lectures, seminars and practical examples. Practical exercises will form the basis for work on expression and interaction. Drama methods will be tested with fellow students and during periods of practical training. Performances/presentations are carried out under guidance and instruction and based on the project work method.

;

The programme is largely based on learning together with others. This type of learning process requires togetherness and cooperation over time. The students are therefore expected to be present and actively participate in teaching activities and group work. Note that the programme is very demanding, and that study days are often spent on group work etc. The students are expected to regularly attend theatre productions for children and adults.

Some teaching may be in English.
