Englisches Theater

Listen to the audiobook...

It’s all about drama!

This year’s p-seminar theater production was not able to be performed due to the Corona Pandemic. Instead the English Theater project seminar team produced an audiobook version of the much renowned Shakespeare play Macbeth. Up until now Ines Baumer has brought 21 plays to the Dom stage since beginning in 2006.
It all started by doing a self-written theater version of Louis Sacher’s children’s novel, Holes, in 2006 with a very enthusiastic 8th grade class determined to do English theater.
Doing English theater has helped many students to become more self-confident in speaking the English language along with schooling a variety of other important skills like teamwork, reliability, being able to present oneself or being able to improvise in difficult situations. It also gives students a chance to be creative in working on their roles by adding or changing scenes, costumes, and props. Through the years a great variety of plays have been staged in all genres from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet to Homer’s Odyssey (The Story of Agent ODC). Since 2011 a P-Seminar has been often offered in English theater for the upper division classes along with the English Drama Group (Wahlkurs) for younger students grades 8-10.
