MVMMS Theater Classes
Students used an acting technique called tableau to explore how to represent key elements of a story onstage. We analyzed stories through the lens of dramatic structure and developed tableaux performances.
What Should I ask My Student: What story was your tableaux about?
Students arrived to class in late September to discover a crime scene! All of the props and costumes were missing and there were clues everywhere. Students had to analyze each clue to decipher:
What was the crime?
Who committed it?
How can they resolve the crime?
What Should I ask My Student: What was the crime in your theater class and who committed it?
Students learned about what a Playbill is. We used this as a structure to introduce ourselves to the class:
What would be in the Playbill handed out at the musical about our lives?
Can you spot your actor's Playbill on the wall here? ------------------------------------------->
For the upcoming school year, only grade 6 MVMMS students will have theater class.
Grade 7 and 8 students wishing to engage in theatre should audition for one of the after school productions. See the above drama club section for how to do this.
