Drama 7/8: From Page to Stage

Biography

In this semester-long course, we dive in for a deeper understanding of all the work it takes to put a piece of theater on the stage. Students will learn the basics of theatrical design and tech areas, and, of course, practice acting using monologues and scenes. The class is designed to support the students’ pursuit of co-creating characters, sets, costumes, etc. with a script. Together we’ll work on the designs for the mainstage drama productions and build our own performance for a Creative Arts assembly at the end of the semester to feature our successes for an audience.
