Today I ran an all day workshop for St Patricks year 10 & 11 drama students. Noel Nassar, Head of Drama brought me in for the IP & GP workshop which took the students through:
- sourcing and selecting an appropriate script
- script analysis and exploration
- character exploration
- eliminating nerves in performance
Group Performance
- Finding a great idea
- Exploring possibilities
- Brain storming techniques
- Acting verses demonstrating
It was a great day and the feedback from the students was that it had been a fun filled, practical workshop that had definitely increased their chances of succeeding in their IP & GP projects. It's rare I get to work with an all boys group and it was a pleasure to see such a strong united group who were so open and supportive of each other.
