Historia del teatro Viajeros en el tiempo: sumérgete, maravíllate y descubre la historia épica del drama

The best way to learn is by doing. Your learner will create an imaginary Time Machine and embark on an immersive, multimedia journey through theatre history. At every stop, they'll step out to relive and reenact the performance styles of each era and culture. Through this hands-on exploration, they'll gain a firsthand appreciation not only for the history of theatre but also for its vital role as both a mirror and a disruptor of society.

As they uncover recurring archetypes that span disconnected cultures and time periods, they’ll uncover universal truths about humanity. These insights will deepen their skills in playwriting, scriptwriting, storytelling, acting, improvising, and more.

Has your learner ever wondered why mimes exist or why ancient performances were so captivating? Did you know that during the Middle Ages, when theatre was banned across much of Europe, mime was one of the only theatrical forms that survived? But why? There’s a fascinating story behind it, and The Theatre Travellers will take your learner on a journey to uncover those answers immersively — and then we will recreate and reenact them!

Through practice and play, they’ll discover how drama has shaped and reflected societies across the globe. Each week, they’ll immerse themselves in a different period of history, becoming the actors of the story as they try out unique and meaningful performance styles and learn their cultural significance.

By the final weeks, learners will return to the present, using everything they’ve discovered to create their own modern storyboard for an original improvised performance based on everything they've learned.
