This advanced course explores both the artistry and mechanics of the rehearsal room, while empowering students to create and lead original theatre workshops. Building on the foundations of directing, students will refine their skills in staging, actor communication, and ensemble collaboration through hands-on rehearsal labs. In addition, students will design and facilitate their own theatre workshops—targeted for educational, community, or professional settings—learning how to craft experiences that inspire creativity, trust, and transformation. Emphasis is placed on developing a personal rehearsal methodology, responding adaptively to group dynamics, and cultivating leadership as a theatre-maker and educator. Ideal for directors, teaching artists, and collaborative creators ready to deepen their impact in the room and beyond.
