Description:

This study program aims to prepare students to shape dramatic space for theatre, opera, and ballet. Design for non-traditional, or site specific spaces, is also included in the program.

Our aim is to guide students in the creative process of mastering stage design as an authorial component of theatre making. Students will also master the technical and technological requirements of designing the stage space – including projection, lighting and acoustics. Our focus is on the designer as co-author of the theatrical performance, and author of the visual experience. Designers will also engage in a professional and theoretical self-refl ection of their own work – a theorized practice. Designers may also work with an architect on designing theatres.

There are mandatory seminars, courses, workshops and practical exercises. DAMU International also provides a wide range of Electives, Exploratory Courses, Non-credit Lectures, and Cultural Excursions, which comprise a vital aspect of each student’s educational experience.
The curriculum of the program includes coursework in the following:

  1. Stage Design: Inspirational sources and approaches to scenographic work; shaping the dramatic space. Dramatic situation as a starting point of an interpretation of the space; action scenography. Typology of the space; stage design of a non-theatrical space; site specific spaces.
  2. History of Stage Design: History of Czech and world stage design
  3. Implementation Practice: Documenting design, selecting materials, realizing costumes and masks. Patination, coloring, making of details, makeup. Supervising DISK workshops. Participation in rehearsals.
  4. Scenology: To introduce students to the basics of stage presence in the perspective of its specific and non-specific execution and relationships.
  5. Drawing and Painting: The course aim is the ability to „see reality better“ and be able to analyze the diversity of its forms, shapes, lines, mass, color and lighting properties, the mutual relationships of objects and subsequent technique and potential of graphic expression.
  6. Graduation Thesis seminar: Individual consultations on the graduation stage-design project and theory paper.
