Drama 7/8: Improvisation & Storytelling

Biography

Theater explores the question: What is the best way to tell stories? In this class, we will explore the history of telling stories through styles such as puppetry, improvisation, playwriting, and watching & reading different styles of plays. Students will practice autobiographical storytelling, public speaking, and creative writing. Together we’ll build a performance for a Creative Arts assembly at the end of the semester to feature our stories for an audience.
