From Word to Body, From Root to Impact: Traces of Creative Drama in Literature Education

At the intersection of literature education and creative drama, you are invited to a journey of discovery where words do not remain merely on the page but take on body and space. In the first half of this six-hour workshop, we will freeze the imagery of poetry in the moment and reconstruct it through the aesthetic language of drama; as we carry the rhythm of the lines into space, we will question the layers of metaphors together. In this process, we will move poetry beyond being a text that is simply read and transform it, through the liberating power of play, into a lived experiential field in which one can breathe.

In the second half of the workshop, we will shift our focus to the plot of narrative and the conflicts at the heart of the story. As we concretize the motivations hidden between the lines of the characters through creative drama, we will reconstruct fictional worlds through the participants’ own stories. In this three-hour journey centered on narrative, we will integrate text analysis with creative action and collectively experience techniques in literature teaching that go beyond memorization, arouse curiosity, and leave lasting traces.

Anyone who wishes to trace the world of words and “touch” the text is invited to the workshop.
