Another fundamental didactic collaboration was the one with the prestigious Accademia d’Arti e Mestieri dello Spettacolo Teatro alla Scala (Performing Arts and Show Professions Academy of Teatro La Scala). The collaboration was aimed to increase the value of the competences of our Academy as well as providing a specialized support to some activities of the La Scala Academy. The first interaction between the two artistic institutions happened with the debut of musical comedy ‘Anything Goes’, on stage at Carcano Theatre from the end of June until the first days of July 2005 and produced by ‘MTS’. The course ‘Stage photographers’ had the chance to work during the shows and a particular shot by Mary Rogliano was chosen and included in the exhibition “The scene of the picture” and in the respective catalogue, published by Théatron and distributed by the monthly magazine “L’Opera” (The Opera). The two academies then cooperated in the production of “Cuore di cane” (Dog heart) on stage at Teatro Nazionale of Milan; the show was a group effort, reuniting the contributions of the main Milanese academies; graduated students from the Filodrammatici and Paolo Grassi Academy performed in the show. Various are the collaborations with the “Photographers” course that hosted some MTS – MUSICAL! THE SCHOOL students in its prestigious seat at the Politecnico, for the release of some coffee-table books. A very meaningful event was the visit of “Photographers” at the seat of MTS – MUSICAL! THE SCHOOL where a photo shoot was set up for the day! Another collaboration was a cycle of open classes called “3 PASSI NEL MUSICAL!” (Three steps into the musical), a series of lessons dedicated to big musical authors and curated by the MTS teachers Luca Bragalini and Davide Garattini. All the classes were held at the aula magna of the La Scala Academy in via Santa Marta, 18 in Milan. This MTS initiative, supported by La Scala Academy, provided a cultural contribution to the city life.
