The subject of production work is the space for a practical examination and test of the student's approaches, with an emphasis on the individual creativity of students. Each student develops his own concept of final performance from different points of view (dramaturgy, directing approach, cast, stage design, light design, music etc.). If the project requires other collaborators, the student is supposed to build up this team from other students of Department. The work on performance is regularly discussed with key teachers on weekly base. Whole studying process is focused on searching of individual, specific theatre language, that student should create through reflection of creation process. Second important layer of creating the final performance is to develop practical skills as organization of creation process: leading the creative team, organizing rehearsal period, implementing particular artistic inputs as set, music, acting etc. into the production as a whole.
