Peter Melin is a teacher at the Academy of Music and Drama at Gothenburg University in Sweden, where he is responsible for the voice, bodywork, and acting classes. He has spent 2 weeks teaching our students at the Acting School about basic voice, bodywork, implementation of voice warm-ups in their morning routine.
Peters visit was part of an exchange between The Freedom Theatre and the Academy of Music and Drama at Gothenburg University. He has been investigating ways he can share methods between the two curriculum.
This is the second time that Peter has worked with us and it has been a wonderful experience that is now opening new opportunities for the theatre. Peter will be coming to Jenin on a regular basis. He is interested in using his network of Scandinavian voice teachers who would like to be part of a voice program in the Acting school. We hope that soon, we will also have our teachers going to visit Gothenburg University to continue this exchange.
All of this wouldn’t have been possible without the support of HSM of Gothenburg University that has been our partner for four years.
