Summary/Abstract: The aim of the following article is to describe how devising can be used as a modern educational method for creating collaborative dramatic texts. This method is student centred, putting the focus on the pupils’ interests and needs, developing the collaboration skills, and allowing them to express themselves freely and creatively, without restraints from the teacher or the other peers. By applying this method, pupils become more self-aware and they practice coacting, which consist in abilities that forge the participatory individual both needed for the artistic area, as well as for other fields. Therefore, the method can be successfully applied in order to achieve the objectives in the pre-academic theatre education, such as: fostering creativity and triggering imagination, strengthening collaboration skills, developing critical thinking.
