AI, a new green flag for Théâtre Antique d’Orange

A Double Challenge with AI

The arrival of artificial intelligence tools has disrupted many professions, and the cultural sector is no exception.

At the Théâtre Antique d’Orange, teams were facing a twofold situation:

• Some employees had never used AI before, lacking references or fearing a tool perceived as too complex.
• Others, on the contrary, had quickly adopted these technologies… sometimes too intensively, risking indiscriminate automation.

In this context, the Théâtre wished to support its teams in finding the right balance: integrating AI in a thoughtful way, serving creativity and cultural excellence, while also gaining awareness of the multiplicity of AI tools available today.

Towards a rightful AI integration within the workspace with Ask Mona Academy

To meet this need, the Théâtre Antique d’Orange turned to the expertise of Ask Mona Academy which led a training session dedicated to the professional uses of AI.

This intervention had three main objectives:

• Educate beginners, giving them the fundamentals to understand and confidently use AI.
• Frame advanced practices, to avoid overuse disconnected from real needs.
• Unite the teams around a shared vision, where AI remains a tool and never an end in itself.

‍

Outstanding Satisfaction Rate: 4.93/5

The training delivered extremely positive feedback from participants:

• “I believe I can apply elements of this training to my professional context”: 4.8/5
• “The training met my expectations”: 5/5

One employee shared:

The training taught me how to truly master generative AI software — how to frame my prompts, phrase them clearly, and therefore obtain more accurate answers.

Tangible Benefits for the Teams

At the end of this training, the Théâtre Antique d’Orange staff developed a much more balanced and constructive approach to AI.

The support provided by Ask Mona Academy enabled:

• A better understanding of AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Invideo, Sunno, Notebook LM, Lovable, Gamma…
• A sharing of experiences and resources, and the establishment of a unified learning curve across teams in their daily use of AI.
• A strengthened ability to leverage AI as a driver of productivity and innovation, without compromising human creativity and expertise.

As Julia Pons, Director of the Théâtre Antique d’Orange, highlights:

“The training allowed us to truly familiarize ourselves with AI tools. It was highly interactive and greatly appreciated by all of us.”

A Recognized and Accessible Training

Ask Mona Academy offers a recognized training program and with recognition comes accessibility: in the case of the Théâtre Antique d’Orange, funding was made possible through Afdas, the institution’s Formative Partner, which allocated its annual training budget to cover the initiative.

Conclusion: Passing On a Thoughtful Culture of AI

The initiative carried out at the Théâtre Antique d’Orange illustrates a key mission of Ask Mona Academy: enabling every employee to adopt an intelligent and well-mastered use of AI.

At a time when AI is becoming unavoidable, training teams means giving them the opportunity to approach these tools with confidence, critical thinking, and creativity.
