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.

This event features the following specific workshop categories:

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

Led by IB-certified facilitators and working professionals, ISTA workshops provide experiential learning, real-world application, and a global network of IB educators, making them a transformative professional development experience.
