Theatre Arts

comedy and tragedy

The Introduction to Theatre Arts elective requires focus, discipline, dedication to learning the craft of Theatre Arts, and a willingness to be part of an ensemble (TEAM).

Students will explore the nature of Theatre in its many forms: Shakespeare and the classics as well as contemporary pieces from plays, musicals, etc.

Among many skills to be developed, students will:

Memorize, analyze, perform and work as an ensemble/team.
Analyze and evaluate works of Theatre and artistic expression from various eras of dramatic art.
Analyze the dimensions of characters, plots, setting, and themes from a variety of dramatic works.
Develop and execute artistic interpretations of theatrical texts in the roles of playwright, actor, director, designer, etc.
Learn improvisation and develop and create skits.

The class collaborates closely with the Stage Crew, especially in preparation and staging of the productions this year.
