smoothed out transitions, and eliminated redundancies to create a cohesive play. With guidance from the Italian and French teachers, the students then nominated themselves for various responsibilities – from acting, dancing, and singing to designing props and backdrops – ensuring that every single participant, whether on stage or behind the scenes, had an active, shared role in the upcoming performance.
The second mobility in Italy: Bringing the play to life When the French students arrived in Italy, the stage was literally set for the grand finale. Due to unforeseen scheduling constraints, we were faced with the daunting challenge of having only three days to rehearse before the public premiere.
Yet, it was precisely during this intense, high-pressure window that the power of their long-term virtual collaboration became evident. Because they had spent months refining the script and building mutual trust, their focus was extraordinary. In just seventy-two hours, accompanied by live music from our school orchestra, they mastered the choreography, choral singing, and stage movements.
The final performance was a triumph – not only because of the artistic quality on stage, but because it stood as a vibrant celebration of cross-border teamwork. And in teamwork I would like to thank also all the teachers on the Italian and French side who were involved: Giuseppina Scalise, Gennaro Ciccimarra and Roberto Fasciano; Helen Maulion, Caroline Remont and Christelle Kalan who guided the students and helped organizing the play beautifully.
