One of our first radio interviews ever. Just before our first play Haute Culture - Did you feed your backpackdoll today? Mosaïque de la responsabilité. In Luxembourgish/German.
Seems like such a long time ago…
Here are several statements of past participants of edudrame (the uni.lu’s student theatre group) on their experiences.
“When I come home from exchange program, I will recommend edudrame to everyone who wants to come and study in Luxembourg!”
“The work of edudrame contributes to the integration of foreign students into the Luxembourgish student society. Erasmus students and students from Luxembourg work together, get to know each other and make new friendships. The multilingual theatre plays allow everybody to come and watch, and it reflects the international society of Luxembourg.”
“The organizers were very responsible, friendly, always there and also flexible.”
“Every theatre functions differently. So did this. Not only did I learn a lot of new exercises from the facilitators, but working with such a big theatre was really good.”
“I would like to work with edudrame again.”
“I became more self-confident and found the performance on stage very enriching. After such an experience it is easier to hold speeches or to make presentations in front of an audience, for example at university.”
“It was fun and entertaining, although it always kept its seriousness and professionalism.”
“The fact that I prepared myself for a role helped me get a better picture about what it means to let go of some barriers. And be myself while playing a role. The exposure to theatre helped me loosen up to the idea of looking actively for cultural events and to participate. It was a breath of fresh air, different from what I did before.”
“I think it is a rather special group, because of its professional aspect and results.”
“I love to work with a heterogenic group and get to learn the different views of people, different ways to behave and different interpretations of characters in a play. It was good to have an opportunity to speak English, because this way it could be improved.”
“I like that in this project students from different countries took part in the play. Great work of the facilitators in writing the plays and setting them up, while taking into account diversity of languages and culture in Luxembourg.”
“The project helped me a lot in being self-confident. Plus, it created a real passion for the world of theatre in me. I’m really glad and proud that I took part in this project, and I would do it again anytime.”
“Edudrame is very special because the plays show the diversity of people, languages and culture in Luxembourg and Europe. This is very unique for a university theatre group.”
