Théâtre du Rêve in Atlantan Schools
Where: Participating schools
France-Atlanta is inviting Théâtre du rêve, Atlanta’s unique French-language theatre company, to bring the language and cultures of the French-speaking world to life in local schools.
With a team of highly professional, bilingual theater artists, the company will be performing two classical plays by Georges Feydeau:
Puppy Love, for an audience of k12 students
By the window, for an audience of students from grade 9 to 12
A bit more about Théâtre du Rêve…
They offer workshops, student matinee performances as well as educational programming for the High Museum of Art. Also, they continue to develop new workshops and residencies to bring into the classroom, in addition to engaging and enriching theatre to extend learning outside of the classroom!
In recent years, they have served over 8,000 students from across the Southeast United States!
Besides, as they believe that neither language nor age nor disability should prevent anyone from enjoying their productions, they have developed several innovations over the years to make their work more accessible. Since 2008 they produce bilingual performances that integrate both English and French in the text or use projected subtitles.
As they explain they are committed to serving a wider audience because they feel strongly that Francophone theatre is not simply for French speakers. It is a strong artistic heritage shared and appreciated by all lovers of art.
