MANN SHOW, COURSES OFFERED, 2008/9

We'll see the same schedule as this past year:

1st Period, DRAMA II. Next year's version of the class will feature a different sort of emphasis on acting than this past year's. The class will be a studio-style, acting workshop focusing on scene studies, voice, and movement.

3rd and 7th Period, FILM CRITICISM. Same tried and true format, with even fewer written quizzes...twenty never-before-used films (and fifteen or sixteen from years previous)...and a completely new final project.

5th Period, DRAMA III HONORS. The class will run much like this past year's class did. The first semester will focus on the production of a play (not unlike this year's THE DINING ROOM), the second on the Spring Production. ALL class members will participate in both productions. Oh yeah...and expect more SLINGS & ARROWS!

6th Period, DRAMA I. There will be Fall and Spring semesters of this introductory class built around a new edition of our textbook, THE STAGE AND THE SCHOOL. Students (mostly freshmen) will be exposed to all aspects of the theatre: performance, history, literature, and production.

Questions or suggestions? What are they? I want to know.
