A note from the author: 10 pages of 8 cards each, 80 cards in total. For hot seating rehearsal techniques in classes, and as part of production or exam rehearsals. There are two options of how to use these cards: Personally I like to laminate these cards on card (double-sided with the backs) and keep them in bundles 1x Pile of Beginner, 1x Pile of Intermediate, 1x Pile of Advanced. I ensure that I also use the back of the card templates to ensure that the cards work as a whole. You could print out a complete sheet and give one to each pupil. This way they have almost a scorecard to use when working on this technique, depending on the level that the actor wishes to try at. Overview of Resource: 30 x Beginner Cards (For use as a good warm up to hot-seating for all level actors, and for KS3 and lower level KS4 / GCSE) 30 x Intermediate Cards (For KS4 / GCSE above, and high level KS3) 20 x Advanced Cards (for KS5 / A Level, and high level KS4 / GCSE) Category: Rehearsal Techniques (Bundle) Stanislavski (Bundle) Included: 80 x Hot-Seating Cue Cards Please note: Purchasing this document allows you to amend and reproduce the cards in anyway that you wish.

A note from the Author: I have adapted the comic master piece ‘Twelfth Night’ into a school production with an additional 20 Gods/Goddesses, 3 servants of Olivia, and 6 extra Feste’s. My additional play ‘Illyrian Elysium’ tells the story of the 20 Gods/Goddesses above Illyria who cause havoc down below for the mortals, which lead to the story of Twelfth Night unfolding. Illyrian weaves effortless between Shakespeare’s scenes and adds depth and explanation for younger audience members. New characters include ‘Love’, ‘Silence’, ‘Music’, ‘Revenge’, ‘Harmony’, ‘Fire’… Please note that the ‘Goddess’ parts may be exchanged for ‘Gods’ in a mixed school setting. Twelfth Night Brief Synopsis Viola has been shipwrecked in a violent storm off the coast of Illyria; in the process she has lost her twin brother, Sebastian. She disguises herself as a boy and assumes the name Cesario for protection. Thus disguised, Viola comes into the service of Orsino, the Duke of Illyria. Orsino is having little luck courting the Countess Olivia, who is in mourning for the deaths of her father and brother. Orsino sends Viola to Olivia’s court with love letters, and when she arrives, Olivia becomes intrigued by the impudent young “boy,” and contrives to get “Cesario” to return by sending her butler, Malvolio, after her with one of Olivia’s rings. Viola realizes to her dismay that Olivia has fallen for her Cesario rather than Duke Orsino — this is further complicated by the fact that Viola has started to fall herself for Orsino. Elsewhere, Sebastian (Viola’s twin, presumed dead) comes ashore in Illyria thinking that Viola has drowned in the shipwreck. His devoted and loving friend, Antonio, rescued him from the surf, and continues to aid him—at some risk to himself, as Antonio fought against the Duke at one time. Meanwhile, in Olivia’s court, Sir Toby Belch (her uncle) has hoodwinked a foppish Sir Andrew Aguecheek into supporting him (and giving him money) by convincing him that he could be a suitor to Olivia. There is also a running feud between Malvolio and Belch, and with the help of Maria (Olivia’s cook), and the band of Feste Fools, Belch plots to make a buffoon of the butler. Maria writes a love letter to Malvolio that will make him think Olivia has fallen for him…And thus begins the realm of discord descending upon Illyria…
