Teachers and teaching process
The Acting Department Teaching theatre grammar through improvisation and etjud technique is based on the essential difference between dramatic texts and staging text, difference that makes the art of staging transform literature into a completely different reality, the reality of the stage action and gives the actor the opportunity of translating the motionless life of the literature text into a special life, not imitated, that lives, moves and it is never immobile in an immutable external form. An approach to the text focuses on the action, the actor who acts. It’s the actor to direct, manage the role and not the other way. The result is lightness and freedom in the game stage, obtained with severity and discipline and representative solutions are excluded. Other methodologies implemented within this Department refer to: • Storytelling Theatre, in which the actor-author of the text is presented on stage without the character, once again with his identity not replaced. • Learning experiences and deepening knowledge of the use of resources related to Shakespeare’s classic English Theatre and the contemporary American Theatre. • Expressive techniques of Living Theatre (non-fictional acting, collective creation, ritual training, Meyerchol’d biomechanics, Piscator and Brecht’s epic-political theatre, choral corporeal expressionism, etc). The Voice Department is composed by certain disciplines that have always been related to the traditional Italian training, such as the dramatic readings, verse drama, learning of the proper pronunciation, vocal training, study of English singing and prosody but it also aims to the more contemporary methodologies such as the Linklater Method which has revolutionized, in the last 40 years, the theatre vocal art and technique. The general program is conceived to make students understand and play, from the very first reading, Italian and English text up to a professional level according to the proper techniques related to the issuance of words and voice. The first year lays the foundation for knowledge, learning and correction of the vocal and articulatory issue through the release of the natural voice, learning the correct pronunciation and diction, issue of the singing voice. During the second year, the Linklater technique and the interpretational and musical vocal techniques are deepened. In the third year the development and application of the autonomy of the study and interpretation of the texts recited and sung are reached with the implementation of a specific project that makes the experiences of the three-year period merge into projects chosen at an interdisciplinary level with other departments. The Movement Department includes those disciplines that aim to make the actor capable of managing his own body through special techniques that belong to different contexts, such as Musical, Comedy of Art, the circus art, stage combat, the use of masks, the corporal theatre, and strengthen the approach to the written text through the universal language of the body that marries a global theatre based on performer’s versatility. The disciplines of this department mainly refer to the Russian School’s methodology, with Stage Movement, Training and Fencing but there are also disciplines such as mime-dynamic and e study of acrobatic drama, clowns and techniques of the modern comic, focusing on the fundamental training experience of the Comedy of Art. Lastly, going back to the Anglo-Saxon context, the Song and Musical Theatre occupy a major role from the second year onwards. The first year involves the acquisition of basic elements to reach the knowledge, the control and the strengthening of the body, as well as the acquisitions to be able to manage movements in function of the space and the stage time. The second year sees the development and the consolidation of the student actor’s motor and expressive skills, the learning of new expressive theatrical languages of the body, the drama, textual and improvised conflict. The third year involves the practical application and interpretation, working on specific theatrical and musical projects. The Department of the Theoretical teachings aims to train an actor capable of motivating and distinguishing the poetic drama, understanding the socio-economical theatrical event in the different époques with particular attention to the contemporary scene. The student will be able to manage his/her own professional figure autonomously and/or in group (from the playwriting to the direction of a troupe) being able to move within the “market” of national and international show business knowing repertories, projects, theatres and foundations. Students will be able to understand the national and international scene of the theatre proposals and contemporarily be equipped for their own artistic proposal in theatre.
