Year 10 Drama Two - Junior Production

Length of course: Half-year

Course Summary: First we play with developing a character from a script. Students then explore acting techniques (voice, body, movement and space) with a range of text - monologues, duologues, and scripts without stage directions (we make up our own!) and group text. Improvisation games and exercises throughout the course allows for the exploration of a range of roles and situations. 

The focus of the second term is the class production. Students explore the rehearsal process, characterisation exercises, apply production technologies (costume, makeup, lighting, sound/music, set, props). Students perform an acting role in a play (or a production technology role) to an invited audience.

Assessment: In class.
