TAKE CENTRE STAGE WITH THE THEATRE DEPARTMENT
In the early 2000s , the Academy created the Theatre Department and has since been welcoming children , teenagers and adults who have a curiosity for acting . Students enrol into theatre for a variety of reasons , whether an acting career is in their sights or a simple drive to put themselves in someone else ’ s shoes and learn something new about themselves . Whatever the goal , the theatre curriculum adapts itself to each student and helps them grow to become more autonomous actors . The Rainier III Academy Theatre teachers promote curiosity , openness and amazement by allowing the students to observe both themselves and others . Whether the theatre students go on to perform in Monaco , internationally , or choose a different path in life , the seeds planted by theatre training will surely be useful on any of life ’ s journeys . such as European Heritage Days , the Monaco Summer Music Festival and the Spring Arts Festival , etc .
