from the same play. Students will begin by practically exploring a variety of scripts and select one that they would like to rehearse and perform for their exam.
Students will rehearse and develop their chosen two scenes. They will use a variety of exploration strategies to develop their character including off text improvisation, writing in role and swapping roles.
