Tutor:
Daniel HRBEK, Zuzana SÍLOVÁ
Synopsis:

The class focuses on practical verification of knowledge and skills gained and especially on developing the ability to motivate actors' actions, work with space including the ability to work with placement and movement of actors in space. Through mutual cooperation on production tasks by students in the fields of directing, dramaturgy, acting and possibly stage design, the common denominator is in particular the developing of the actor/director playing out of the dramatic situation.

Prerequisites:
Study Objectives:

Realizing a dramatic situation with actors in space with emphasis on leading actors.

Ability to clearly identify (for one's self and for actors) what is „before us“ - ability to identify a goal and what we have obtained on the way to it.

Developing of conscious decision making, and what is and is not important at a given phase of rehearsals.

Outline and Syllabus:

1. Analysis of the text and staging intent

2. The situation and creating dramatic space

3. Movement and position in space

4. Given circumstances and motivation of action

5. Relations of characters and playing out the dramatic situation

6. Creating mise en scene and barriers to action

7. Fabulation and composing the production as a whole

Syllabus:

Based on analysis of the text and the staging intent arising from it, students proceed to identifying individual situations and collectively creating dramatic space. They become familiar in practice with the possibilities for expression of mutual relations by thematicized movement and position in space. An integral component is work with given circumstances and practical verification of motivation for action. The main content is playing out and developing of the dramatic situation by the director and actors and the creation of a corresponding mise en scene. At the end of the semester, the students arrive at a whole production that is deliberately composed and thematicized.An integral component of the class is reflection on the results achieved.
