Through practical and theoretical study, learners develop an understanding and enjoyment of drama, developing group and individual skills and studying ways to communicate ideas and feelings to an audience. They learn how to discover performance possibilities of a text and other stimuli, and devise dramatic material of their own. Learners also develop their performance skills, the demonstration of which will form part of their final assessment.

Candidates work with:

-       Extracts from published plays

-       Stimuli (short titles, poems, pictures, songs, historical events, stories…) for devising dramatic pieces)

-       Their own choice of dramatic repertoire

Dramatic material of their own devising. Learners develop their individual and group performance skills, the demonstration of which forms part of the final assessment.
