Theatrical Design

The career Theatrical design of the Universidad de Chile was modificated a few years ago, for this reason you thought that doesn’t need changes. But this is a irreal thinking, because Theatrical Design need a lot of changes to be better.

First, the building, the Theatre’s Departament of the Universidad de Chile is really poor and small, is very sad but is real. I think that is very necessary change the infraestructure because the classmates are uncomfortable, in Winter the building it rains and is very cold. I remember once the courtyard was flood and was impossible go to the classrooms for this reason. Also the classrooms are insufficient, in ultimate grade of Theatrical action don’t have classroom, and in third grade of Theatrical design the classroom is very small and have smell to urine of cat, really! The patio is very small and with the scenography the patio disappear, and for this reason Alejandro, the butler want take out the trash and this is a problem for the students.

Also the curriculum, is very interesting, but I think it lacks practical content, in three areas, costume, scenography and lighting, but mostly to lighting.

The teaching methods I think are very related with the curriculum, I don’t know that specify of this, because when don’t working the teaching methods the students do know. Once with my classmates were dissatisfied with a teacher because for two years passed the same subject and and we decided to denounce this situation so they had to send the teacher to pedagogy class so he could go back to teaching.
