Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

content
The Dschungel Academy provides practical orientation for students through contact and discussion with artists, involvement in productions and an insight into the running of a theatre. Included will be visits to rehearsals, lectures, artists talks, presentations and performances.

purpose
Students will be given an insight into theatre for young audiences and its various forms, through contact with national and international artists. They will become acquainted with the production process, through introduction to the fields of dramaturgy, production management, public relations, theatre pedagogy, technical direction and safety regulations. The academy will help students to engage critically through viewing performances, participating in discussions with artists, and writing a review. Visiting speakers giving presentations will give students a wider view of the theatre scene.

Method
The 3 pillars of the Dschungel Academy are:
1. Theory: Lectures on various forms of theater and artistic activities (children and young people on stage, dance and performance, writing for young audiences, etc) will form the basis for contextual discussion. Current theatre makers will give participants insight into their practice. These lectures will be complemented with selected performances.
2. Practice: Over the duration of a semester, students will get to observe a theatre production in its continuing development, from meeting and talking with the director/choreographer at the beginning of rehearsals, to visiting rehearsals up until the premiere. In addition, the Dschungel Wien team will present their work, providing a concrete insight into the different working fields involved.
3. Performances: The students will see productions from Dschungel Wien, coproductions and productions from independent companies, as well as guest performances. After many performances, artists will be available for a discussion, and students will be invited to speak about the work they have just seen. 8 performances in total will be visited (4 for children, 4 for youths).
