YouTube channel “Theatrical windows” is up and running

Educational channel “Theatrical windows” is set up online to promote the exchange of theatrical skills and experience.

It will collate and store practical video information about various theatre schools around the world: workshops, video classes, movies, interviews, etc., so as to demonstrate the diversity of theatre culture and the existing theatre systems.

The channel will present classes from theatre teachers, directors and actors from various countries representing various theatre schools. All information will be dubbed in the Ukrainian language.

“There is nothing like this in the Ukrainian segment of the Internet. This will be a channel with a totally unique content. In fact, it is about a live video guidebook for everyone engaged in theatrical arts: actors, directors, teachers, critics and – above all – students of theatre universities”, points out Dmytro Ternovyi, initiator and coordinator of program “Theatrical window to Europe”.

He went on to say that the main idea of the project is to bring theatrical communities of Ukraine and Europe closer together.

The channel already offers workshops presenting the Lecoq’s school of physical theatre. Shortly, there will be workshops representing the Polish theatre school, commedia dell’arte and the instrumental actor school.

The channel has been created within framework of “Theatrical windows. Work in progress” – a project by the Theatre na Zhukah (Kharkiv, Ukraine), with financial support from the International Relief Fund with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany and the Goethe-Institut Ukraine
