Course Description
Please apply directly to arthaus.berlin by 1st May 2022.
We are delighted to run MA/MFA programmes with arthaus.berlin (formerly LISPA).
arthaus.berlin is a centre of artistic research, innovation and individuation. It seeks to inspire the theatre and performance arts of tomorrow and appeals to those committed to the creation of their own work - whether as actors, performers, directors or writers for the stage. The journey it offers is both poetic and practical, integrating a deep curiosity for life with a passion for theatre and performance.
Why choose this course? The Devised Theatre and Performance MA (DTAP) prepares you for the challenging task of creating your own work. You will enhance your physical, emotional, imaginative and cognitive playfulness in order to be well equipped for the demanding journey of articulating, shaping and presenting your artistic visions. You will develop a better understanding of "the physical body you have, the subtle body you are, and the collective body we all have in common". The exploration of the dynamic relationships between these different bodies will provoke your physical and emotional imagination, creative intuition and personal playfulness, initiating awareness of what we call the Poetic Body. Awareness of this body lies at the very centre of arthaus.berlin's DTAP Course pedagogy, since accessing it is essential for the creation of new performance languages.
