Practical Presentation 1

Practical Presentation 2

Through the module, students will be introduced to a range of theatre texts and forms from a variety of genres and periods, and will be asked to explore, evaluate and interrogate these through practice; thus broadening their theatrical vocabulary and developing their abilities to recognize dramatic / theatrical potential within such texts and in other cognate forms of theatre and performance. Through this process (which will include studio exercises, personally driven analyses and workshop sessions) the student will be expected to investigate and recognize their individual qualities as an actor; and will be supported in developing a range of acting techniques and approaches apposite to that progressing work in acting, which is reinforced and strengthened within their emerging individual acting profile. 
In addition, the student will be introduced to a range of approaches and strategies for dramatic improvisation that will enrich and strengthen their deepening freedom of action, trust, creativity, teamwork and discipline.
