Theatre I is an introduction to the wonderful world of acting. In Theatre I, you will recognize Theatre as an art form that encompasses all the arts and is representative of life at all levels. We will study about theatre history, pantomime, improvisation, voice and diction, roles and responsibilities of a production staff, acting, and much, much more! You will also write and perform short scenes and monologues and participate in theatre games. I hope you will find Theatre a fun and educational experience!
Everyone should have a small notebook to be used as a journal. I will take these up periodically and grade them. You also need a 3 ring binder for your theatre notebook. THESE ARE TWO SEPARATE NOTEBOOKS!
Students will continue focusing on improvisation. We will present the characters that you each created next class period. Remember that you will need to answer the questions about your character, write a one page monologue, draw a portrait, and rehearse in order to perform next class period. We will also continue the storytelling exercise.
Drama club and Thespian Troupe 5251 are two opportunities for students to be involved with theatre as an extracurricular activity. Drama Club welcomes all students whether you are enrolled in Theatre or not, and the Thespian Troupe has theatrical requirements based on a point system in order to attain membership status.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me during school hours at 856-7121. I am excited about teaching your child, and I hope that he or she will have a positive Theatre learning experience!
