Learning outcomes

"The aim of the seminar is to translate and edit a drama by a contemporary German-speaking author that will be produced by Činoherní studio in Ústí nad Labem. This is part of the project ""Crossing the Borders"", putting together students of various disciplines, since the theater play will subsequently be presented by the students of Drama Schools (DAMU, JAMU) in the form of scenic reading. The experience of transposing the German drama in the Czech culture will also be valuable for participants in the seminar. The seminar will take place in the form of creative workshops in close cooperation with the team of the Činoherní studio. Students will thus be in direct contact with both German and Czech texts, their adaptation for specific performances, and will thus participate in the final result of staging a drama."
