Theatre Directing
12 months, Blended | IUGTE with NIPAI
The Theatre Certificate Program provides hands-on training in acting, movement, performance, and directing, allowing participants to become skilled in roles such as performer trainer, coach, choreographer, theatre practitioner, and movement director. The program is split into two semesters, with students receiving more than 500 hours of practical training and experience.
The Program covers the exhaustive list of directing skills and knowledge necessary to make your own performances and shows. Theatre Directing classes are not theoretical explorations; they are practical workshops designed to put students in the director’s chair as quickly as possible. You will learn how to work with key collaborators such as actors, writers and designers.
The curriculum includes:
Classical approach to directing
Physical theatre
Rehearsal techniques
Ensemble building
Producing
Composition
