They also learnt how stock characters were an inspiration to Shakespeare & other playwrights.
As a school we empower our students to think differently and embrace a love of learning. #Drama #TheatreStudies #Alevels #Year12 #Comedy #Theatre 🎭 #Ourgirlswillchangetheworld 2/2 – at Ealing, London
Thank you @staugustinesp for inviting me in. Great to work with your lovely students! They have such a thirst for knowledge.
Year 12 A-Level Drama pupils enjoyed a Commedia dell’Arte Workshop with expert Cheryl Stapleton @learningmasks . They learnt how stock character masks had their own personality & how body, voice, movement & stillness combine to create physical comedy and slapstick.
