Theatre Arts III: Performance/Production

Theatre Arts III is for students wanting to explore further aspects of theatre in either performance or production. The course will be a combination of class time with the Theatre Arts I & II students and a self-study project directed and mentored by the drama teacher.

The course allows the student to develop and perform a significant solo performance (or possibly duet), which the actor will officially perform as a production during the semester. The date of the production will be chosen in consultation with the drama teacher. The solo performance will be a complete one-act play ranging from 30 to 45 minutes in length.

The actor will have the opportunity to write the play if that is of interest to the actor. Otherwise, a suitable script will be found. The actor will be in charge of the production and performance of the play in conjunction with the drama teacher.
