Subject Description
In Year 10 Theatre Arts students begin the Monologue. Students select a monologue to research, create and perform to a chosen theatrical style, presenting a folio explaining their creative choices. The main body of work lies in the “Process and Performance” unit. Students develop their understanding of the three stages of production by working in a chosen area of stagecraft.
