Dear Colleagues and friends,

We hope you all find your ways to produce, rehearse and play in whatever way is possible in these strange times. The World Theatre Training Institute AKT-ZENT/ITI will remain online during these months and we hope to offer interesting opportunities to all those who want to use the winter time for self-study and artistic research.

In the directing seminar, Jurij Alschitz will touch on several important topics: He will make provocative suggestions about the theme of “event”, which is essential for the question of how to deal with modern dramaturgy as a director. This leads to the art of making an analysis in such a way that it becomes a source of energy for the actors in their play. And finally, the highest art: how do I work with actors?

The on-going programme My System of Stanislavsky invites discussion with its third theme: Action and affective memory, which means nothing other than asking oneself about the truth on the stage.

Above all, we invite everyone to start the New Year again with our traditional International Directors’ and Trainers’ Colloquium. Jurij Alschitz will share his findings about Quantum Pedagogy
Use the early bird offer until 6 December!

Finally, we want to give everyone a Christmas gift idea: The classics by Jurij Alschitz as a complete package, available through our bookshop. They promise to be enjoyable reading, inspiration and companions for a long time.

With best regards and wishes for the Advent season
The team of the World Theatre Training Institute AKT-ZENT
