In a so varied school population our school pays great attention to motivate all the students in order to give them equal opportunities and to encourage their human and cultural growth. Our school aims to connectthe learning process with strategies and activities that  are intended to remove youth uneasiness, to re-motivate the students to study, to reinforce their knowledge, competences and abilities. 

Our school approach  is to appreciate the best students and to limit the educational failure. 

We think that school must be inclusive and motivating, school must insert the student in a positive context, with more opportunities, giving different answers to different needs.

In the video a mother does not take into

her criterion on her education disregarding

her daughter's real wishes.

All this has a dramatic consequence on her

In some cases this lack of communication

might lead to bad friens and even to

alcoholism or drug abuse.

key to solve this situation.

The students of 2nd course baccalaureate of

Scenic Arts and some also of Plastic Arts came 

to the representation of the stage play Punk Rock 

by Simon Stephens. 

 

“ Seven young people, in full transit towards the

adult life, faces the tests that will open to them

the doors of the University and will allow them

to flee of the low-industrial area where they

have grown up. The pressure is maximum and

each one will have to do their best to get their

goals. However,not all of them are ready to

stand the effort.

 

After the representation, the artists carried out

a meeting with the public during whom our

students could talk with the artists and ask them  

some questions on those aspects that were

more interesting for them.

 

​

 

When we came back to class we were analyzing

aspects of the drama, of the text, of the interpretive

work as well as of the sceneography and the inclusion

of music and video projection.

 “ An  intense work,  interpreted intensely, it completely

gets the public moved and makes us empathize with

the characters ”

Andrea Márquez Ruiz

“ I got goose-flesh understanding what was happening 

to every character (…) the time when there was a

shot, I felt as if it was really happening."

Sandra Alba Caballero

“ In the work there are abuses, insults and violence, they make you think and question not only the behavior of the characters but also your own actions and they also make you think about what you would do in these situations ”

Fátima Alcoholado Fernández

“ The staging of projected images not only managed to get the public attention but they were interludes to mark the passing of days. It turned out to be very original ” to me (Maria)

"The Bazaar" is a play close to the Wagnerian concept of "total art" that combines interpretation, music and dance (as well as a simple set design and lighting and sound resources) and claims less explicit horror as a form of entertainment and artistic experience.

It seems to us a very credible work because all characters acted very well and they also believed it, that is, they got into the paper a lot and it was clear that each of them was living the moment to the fullest. Another thing that made possible to believe the performance was the terrifying characterization of the characters. They were the ones who put on makeup themselves. So they have talent for it too.

The public was very motivated with this play and the result of the pupils’ work was satisfactory. The work in team was the best in this play because it was remarkable the effort that everyone put into making this play, with all kinds of musical instruments, such as saxophone and electric guitar, and also dancers and singers who showed their own talent with creativity, that is, the dancers invented the dance steps and the singers composed the songs. In short, this was a play made by the creativity and effort of each of the students. With all this, it was also remarkable the hours of rehearsal, which is something very important in the world of performing arts. Your show will be better as long as you spend more time to rehearse it and prepare it correctly.

Lastly, we can only say that we were delighted to see this great work, a play that was very worked by the students.

These are the links where we found some of the games:

After some meetings devoted to these games we started getting our students to PREPARE FOR THE real interview by inviting them to look for some interviews to famous people, in English, and to write down the questions asked them by the interviewers .  

They worked in group of 4 people for an easier understanding of the spoken interviews. Then each group shared the recorded questions with the other groups.  

The next step was to   create some characters with the contribution of each student who supplied one piece of information about the character. After that, students were split  into two groups: group one played the role of a character chosen among a set of characters created by themselves and Group 2 the role of an interviewer. 

the experience at the Apollo theatre on 7 February was very productive for us. In addition to describing the meaning of the famous work by Pirandello "ONE, NONE, CENTOMIL" the actor Enrico lo Verso has allowed us to discover techniques and anecdotes concerning the theater. He has aroused great curiosity in us and has allowed us to introduce ourselves behind the scenes of the theater just before the show, making us understand everything that is behind a simple theatrical representation, which is actually the set of emotions and feelings that the actor tries to convey in the public. And in our case, the actor managed to transmit it to us, as well as enriching our knowledge of Pirandello's work. 5AEN

Enrico lo Verso in this monologue illustrated all the beauty of Pirandello's poetics, allowing us to experience the story of the play. The monologue also made us understand his humor and his style.

I liked the interpretation of this monologue just as much as the story represented. In particular, I appreciated the skill of Enrico lo Verso in representing the various roles, through a marked phonic distinction of the characters.

Beautiful theatrical representation of the well-known actor Enrico lo Verso;  the actor was very good at easing the plot and making it more accessible to us as students. It was also nice to communicate directly with the artist while taking us behind the scenes in the beautiful Apollo theater.

After seeing this show I really appreciated the skill of the actor, who managed to represent a complex subject on his own  and to maki it fun.

We have witnessed a splendid representation. I was impressed by the skill of the actor, who was able to involve us directly in the story.

-Davide B.

A very beautiful play. I really liked the actor because he involved me enough, representing the protagonist with a unique and never seen ease and familiarity. I would gladly see him again.

5BINF

-Alessandro B.

I consider the show very impressive, especially from the point of view of the skill of the actor and co-writer, who knew how to enclose the multiple characters of the novel in a single actor, who thanks to his masterful interpretation was also able to entertain the audience . In the work, already studied and appreciated, the monologues and delusions of the protagonist against himself and society were very significant and exciting, exposing the existential hardships not only of the protagonist but of modern man in general.

-Gabriele P.

The immersion created by the actor's interpretation, including the accurate dialect, the tone and the ability to react to unexpected events without batting an eyelid, was profound and made me fully fall into the part of a common Sicilian lord of the time

who was attending the various live scenes. An indescribable emotion.

At the end students were challenged to build a story to be role-played - Creative Writing -           " From the Page to the Stage". This theatre game included some  behind-the-scenes exercises, which should be done during the week and at the end they should come out with a  final “product” to be shared with everybody.
