Basic Guide for Exchange Students | 1 Basic Guide for Exchange Students SP Escola de Teatro – Centro de Formação das Artes do Palco, located in this capital of the state of São Paulo, is a project created to fill the gap that we recently realized exists between the emergence of a number of theatrical venues in the country, the lack of professionals qualified of working in them and the importance of including disenfranchised social segments into the cultural processes. The project is structured on three pillars – Regular Courses, Cultural Extension Courses and the Kairós Program - which support the systemic operations of the institution’s sectors, encompassing several artistic and educational activities. It also proposes new challenges for teaching performing arts in Brazil and perceives its teachers and learners through their sensibilities and potentials for the artistic, human, critical, and citizenship areas. Although its origin is related to the perception that, in recent years, (I) the increase in demand for labor in cultural venues has exceeded the supply of qualified professionals to perform these functions, and that (II) there is a lack of technically prepared professionals to take up the duties of lighting and sound operation, props and costume design, stage management, and others, the school was not designed only to meet the market’s needs, but essentially to share knowledge and, through it, provide top quality artistic training, assisting, when necessary, underprivileged students. With these goals in sight, associations of highly accomplished theatre professionals of the São Paulo stage met to compose the school’s faculty and staff, which were designed in a partnership with the State Department of Culture and hold an educational system that is unique in Brazil. Therefore, SP Escola de Teatro, by employing art and education as elements of social change, works to train artists/citizens, fostering in them a reflexive awareness and also qualifying them as theatre professionals.
