Mini-Festival

“With mask, without mask”

11th-15th of May, 2015,

I.I.S “Via Emery 97”, Rome, Italy

This meeting in Rome has been an important step of the project for two main reasons:

1. The presence of the students from the six European countries involved in the project,

2. Their active part on the scene.

The topic was about family issues and all the plys you can find it here. Students had to show a situation in which a problem could be solved according to the Forum Theatre method. All the students showed their ability in acting and they were emotional involved in this kind of experience. 

After the family issues plays, the tapes about discrimination were presented, and they can be seen here.

A special attention has been dedicate to reflection on this moving experience.

All the students, first in a workshop guided by teacher Lara Santangelo, and later in the assembly, were invited to express their opinions, feelings and impressions about this event in Rome.

Widespread appreciation has been expressed, especially for meeting each other and directly getting in touch in a foreign language, being on the stage and enjoying the other countries performances, visiting historical monuments and also understanding that there are a lot of similarities beyond cultural differences. All their reflections have been collected in a synthesis map.
