The aim of the studio is to educate young artists (creators and performers) in the performing arts, focusing primarily on physical theatre, original acting and a practical approach to working with new media and their scenic use.

We run a cabinet dealing with research in theatre and drama theory. We focus on the documentation and analysis of the work of Brno studio theatres, issues of performativity, analysis of production in theoretical terms or stage design.

The main responsibility of the department is to provide and support international contacts as well as international mobility of students and staff. It also provides information to international students about study opportunities at the faculty and participates in the organisation of their studies and stay at the faculty.

The aim of the training is to produce playwrights and scriptwriters who are technically skilled as well as thoughtful and artistically creative. Therefore, in addition to lectures on the creation of radio and television genres, the curriculum includes instruction focused on the social context of mass media, culture, and film typology.

We are engaged in teaching in the field of audiovisual production and theatre. Students receive theoretical training in theatre and audiovisual production, practical exercises and a graduation project, during which they develop their creative talents, their abilities of artistic expression and acquire technical skills.

We run a studio that focuses on combining acting, singing and dancing into one coherent artistic performance.

We are engaged in teaching in the field of stage design. We focus on analyzing and interpreting themes, mastering artistic devices and acquiring a technological foundation in the field of stage, costumes or exhibitions.
