Title: Performing arts training in cyberspace:an approach for the twenty-first century
Synopsis:

Cyberspace is a viable resource for training artists in the twenty-first century. It jointly lends to interdisciplinarity, entrepreneurism, and cross-cultural exchanges. In addition to training actors for stage and on-camera careers, or musicians for standard recordings and gigs, arts programs might consider learning strategies that deploy digital technology as a viable resource for teaching and learning. In doing so, programs can develop artistic entrepreneurs who are capable of shaping the industry’s future and its impact on society. Thus, this paper argues that cyberspace offers important opportunities for training artists in the twenty-first century. In addition to finding success in the industry, such an approach enhances disciplinary diversity, cultural inclusion and social justice. A practice-based research model will be the basis for our findings. In April of 2021, the authors and their students co-created a telematic theatre experiment with peers from the Zurich University of the Arts and the Escola de Teatro in Brazil. From its three-month planning phase to the two weeks of the telematic workshop, the authors will present their first-hand account of the challenges and triumphs of their experience and that of their students. The paper will therefore present telematic theatre-making as a useful strategy for meeting and exceeding learning outcomes commensurate with traditional — in studio — methods and pedagogies toward demonstrating that cyberspace is important and relevant to training performing artists in the twenty-first century.
