About this event

Join us for an immersive three-day IB DP Theatre workshop designed to deepen your understanding of theatre practice, pedagogy, and IB assessment. Led by expert theatre educators, this workshop provides hands-on exploration of key elements such as staging play texts, world theatre traditions, ensemble collaboration, and theatre theory.

This event features the following specific workshop categories:

  • Category 1 & 2 (Combined)
  • Category 3 Collaboratively Creating Original Theatre
