Let's set the stage for you....
This course provides opportunities for students to explore dramatic forms and techniques,
using material from a wide range of sources and cultures. Students will use the elements
of drama to examine situations and issues that are relevant to their lives. Students will
create, perform, discuss, and analyse drama, and then reflect on the experiences to
develop an understanding of themselves, the art form, and the world around them.
Prerequisite: None

Attendance is always important, but in a drama class it affects everyone, not just you. Always let me know in advance if you are going to be missing a class--and the people in your group.
The class rules are simply this: respect yourself, the class and the room. Over the next week or so (January 27 to February 3) we will be exploring what this looks like, sounds like, and feels like, through the use of a variety of drama games. It might look like chaos, sound like pandemonium and feel like fun, but you will be working and learning.
Are you ready?
