International Courses for Directors
Explore the mastery of professional directing
Whether emerging or experienced, all directors face the expectation of being the master brain of the production. Rightly so. Whether I prefer to work alone, with a leading team or with an ensemble of actors as a collective, directing requires a comprehensive knowledge of working with actors, the ability to analyse texts, a trained eye for composition in all aspects of a production, and much more. In addition to these craft requirements, directing is about the visionary view, about getting in touch with one’s own innovative approach to old and new material and its realisation.
The courses of the Directing Department meet this challenge on two levels that are mutually dependent. Craft, know-how and experimentation with innovative methods. Discover the potential of Quantum Training, enter the cosmos of a holistic concept of theatre, and learn about how the applied use of resonance and wave theory can change the way your actors play and give your production a completely new expression. To name just a few topics.
Knowledge is constantly in motion, evolving, interacting with other ideas, adding, multiplying, changing and even destroying itself. This is the essence of one of the principles of the quantum technology of liquid knowledge.
