The main purpose of artistic as well as theatrical education at school is to develop students’ aesthetical cognition. Art is such a sphere of human activity where emotional experience plays an extremely important role. Theatrical art embraces two dimensions: horizontal – the world of feelings and emotions, and vertical – the world of mind and intellect. It means that actor’s skill consist of his/her ability to convey both the feelings and the ideas. In adolescence young people undergo a period of confusion of roles and search for their identity. At the same time they are open for new experience, therefore it is greatly important for them to learn self-confidence and have a teacher/educator they can trust. Such peculiarities of emotional experience as sence of pleasure during theatrical education classes, communication with fellow actors on stage and with the audience, lack of self-confidence or, vice versa, excessive self-reliance often bring teenagers to theatrical education. Emotional experiences that predominate in theatrical education have immeasurable influence on the inner world of the teenager; they bring him/her closer to the secret of theatrical art and give sense to their activity.
