TOÇEK Director Şükran Raif and Music teacher Batuhan Hasan attended the programme as speakers.
Firstly, Şükran Raif talked about the effects of theatre on personality structure and success in social life, and touched upon the contributions of theatre to the sense of responsibility, discipline, empathy, and recognition of one's own culture and world culture. Emphasising that theatre is also effective on the development of mother tongue, Raif noted that theatre is almost a social therapy for the audience and the actors.
Batuhan Hasan, in his speech under the title "The healing power of music", stated that the healing power of music dates back to 6 thousand years ago and has been used for healing purposes throughout history. Hasan stated that during the development period of music therapy, treatment with water sound and fragrances was added to the music and gave examples of the makams of the music played in the treatment.
