We are going to study three plays of French-speaking authors, which each in it's own way and under three different forms handle the questions of childhood, and childhood's battle.



The course will be articulated in a dynamic, participative and creative way around three axes: 1)Dramaturgic study of texts: reading, discussion, analyze; 2)Exercises stemming from the theatrical pedagogy to improve the qualities of articulation, pronunciation, memorization, verbal ease and public speaking; 3)Staging extracts of the studied plays, which will close the course
