Working with text...

The Little Actors began this week's session with a short improvisation game and then began a workshop on a brand new story.  This worked on their improvisation skills, teamwork but also their powers of persuasion. Key skills in drama such as understanding teacher in role and how to react to characters were also worked on in the session.




The art  group Splat runs from 10-11 and students are able to express their creative skills in a range of activities.

This week the key theme for the workshop was working with text and creating scenes from a few simple lines. One of the main lessons from the day for the students was how people's work can differ even when they have the same starting point. There were some fantastic scenes produced, and the students also worked on how to express themselves in a naturalistic way and keeping the scenes real. 

Musical theatre are putting together pieces for a performance in the summer, and this group is always looking for new members, running 12.40-1.40.
