The course will be concluded with an international skype happening which gives you an opportunity to highlight today's theatre in your home country for the rest of the group.During this course you will have lots of opportunities to visit the spectacular travelling summer festival De Parade.

After this course students have a global insight into the development of European theater in its historical, social and cultural context. They acquired basic dramaturgical skills which enable them to analyze and interpret theatrical signs (like drama texts, acting, scenography, costumes, sound, music) and their relationships more profoundly. Besides they experienced the famous Dutch theatre virus on the spot!
