Course content

Read the study guide
Acting
The course Acting has a structural structure. First, you start with the pure text analysis of drama works. This is applied in primary acting techniques (monologue or dialogue form). In a second phase, music is added. Then we move on to arias and later ensembles. In the first semester we work in a small group, in the second semester we work thematically in larger groups in workshops.

Scenic improvisation
- Improvisation exercises
- carrying out acting assignments that enable the student to explore fantasy and empathy
- general preparation for later acting lessons
