LEARNING MORE ABOUT DRAMA. GROUP WORK

As you know, we are trying to learn something more about drama and its origins. To do so, we are working in groups. Let me remind you that group work requires dedication from ALL MEMBERS. It is also important that you carefully plan what you're going to do and when and how you're going to do it. In case you are not used to doing that, here you will find a time table to help you meet deadlines and orginize your work.
