“Zeilenschmiede,” an artist group from Germany, visited UConn on October 3rd, 2018, to present their approach to getting creative with German: improvisational theater. In a two-hour workshop with one of the German Studies courses, taught by Mareike Geyer, they guided the group through a series of hands-on and get-physical scenes, with some exercises derived from the long history of ad hoc drama production.

To learn more about Zeilenschmiede and their US tour visit their site at the Goethe Institute and take a look at their video:
