Brief description

Dramaturgical procedures, techniques, and methods are essential elements of theatrical work and significantly influence various aspects of daily life. They are employed in politics, everyday social interactions, and media contexts. In theater pedagogy, they serve as the foundation for successful directing with diverse target audiences, and a practical understanding of these concepts is considered a standard competency for theater educators, both in educational and theatrical settings. This module aims to provide professional training in acquiring fundamental dramaturgical skills, focusing on their practical application in directing practice.
