A final discussion on the results.  The Theatre Workshop

was  held on 19 September by two experts Angelantonio

De Nitto theatre director and actor  and Emanuela Gabrieli,

actress and singer.

In the morning the participants were guided on a training

course for the awakening of their own body followed by  a

dance exercise in a circle aimed at rediscovering listening, overcoming their physical limits and strengthening their ability to get involved. The exercises also explored their relationship with space and with others people, the ability to interact with rhythms,  with volumes and different frequencies.

The afternoon workshop activity started with a short presentation related to singing, each participant had to  introducehimself/herself to the group by singing a piece of music.

After that they worked on the exploration of vocalism,

resonators and an exercise of choral rhythm composition.

The participants were given a theme and they were asked

to work on it in couple or individually for few minutes.

Then they  showed their performances based on improvisation

to the group.  The final step was a group discussion on the

themed improvisations. Both teachers and students participated

in it.

The cultural activities included: a Traditional Dance Lab to

introduce the partners to our local traditions; a sightseeing tour

of Lecce; a trip to Salento coast to visit OTRANTO’s art treasure:

the precious mosaic  on the floor of the Cathedral.

The meeting with the Mayor of Lecce was an important opportunity

to present and disseminate our project and to talk about the great

value of Erasmus+ project in the life of young generations.

In spite in Italy there was a TPM, the Italian students hosted

some Dutch students to return the kind hospitality they received

during the short-term exchange of groups of students in

Netherlands.
