Bartın University (BARÜ) School of Foreign Languages hosted a seminar entitled “From Script to Stage: Surviving Your First English Play”, delivered by Lecturer Zeki Cem Kaçar for students enrolled in the Compulsory English Preparatory Program (CEPP). The seminar took place on November 4, 2026, at the Ağdacı Campus Conference Hall.

Organized to support students in preparing for their upcoming English-language theatrical performances, the seminar offered practical guidance on various aspects of theatre production, from scriptwriting and adaptation to stage performance.

The first part of the seminar emphasized that effective theatrical performance is not about flawless acting but rather about clear communication and meaningful storytelling. Students were introduced to key considerations in writing and adapting scripts, developing characters, and using natural, accessible language.

The seminar then focused on essential aspects of stage performance, including breathing techniques, voice control, articulation, body language, and stage presence. Through interactive activities and hands-on exercises, students actively practiced breathing and vocal techniques, explored the effective use of gestures and facial expressions, and developed greater awareness of body positioning and movement on stage. These activities gave participants the opportunity to experience fundamental performance techniques firsthand.

Another key point highlighted during the seminar was the importance of internalizing dialogue rather than simply memorizing lines. Students were encouraged to listen and respond naturally to their fellow performers and to develop stronger coordination on stage through regular rehearsals.

Held ahead of the theatrical performances scheduled as part of CEPP, the seminar provided students with valuable insights into the preparation process. It also contributed to their development of English communication skills and helped them approach their upcoming performances with greater confidence and awareness.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Lecturer Zeki Cem Kaçar for his valuable contribution to our students' theatrical preparation and learning experience.
