The "Theatrical Puzzle" project is a pilot project and envisages the creation of a theater studio for deaf youth at Theatre Tsvete in partnership with Ardus – Association of Parents of Children with hearing impaired and Development and Integration Foundation within one year. We plan to create a fun and safe environment in the theater studio, in which the deaf youth will be helped to:
– Train new roles and skills;
– Express their feelings and emotions;
– Develop their emotional and social competences;
– Work in a team;
– Deployed personal and creative potential;
– Develop imagination and creativity;
– Build confidence in their own capabilities;
– To socialize and have a sense of cohesion.
Within the project, the deaf youth will go through three trainings:
– Masks;
– Theater of the subject;
– Playback theater.
In addition to the training, a copyright performance on topic will be created: “Ecology in nature -ecology of personality ”. The performance will incorporate principles and techniques from the three trainings that have already taken place. The art of puppet theater (the theater of the subject) in its great variety, combined with elements of playback theater and the theater with masks, have the privilege of bringing aesthetic delight and social transformation in the process of creating and changing public attitudes towards ecology. The performance will rely on set design solutions for
dolls and suits, Made by a professional set designer. But it will also involve working with waste materials and turning them into improvised ones – recycled dolls. Images and metaphors will be created, to inspire young people's ideas on this subject through theatre.
