(0)
A note from the author: I use these certificates to congratulate my wonderful students in both academic and co-curricular drama & theatre, as well as for their hard work and dedication to school productions. Overview of Resource: These certificates are in the style of ‘Dramatic’. They are also available in: Classic Sparkle Included: 35 x Drama Certificate Templates including: ensemble work kind human being outstanding performance audience interaction classroom contribution lighting design delivering monologue role model supporting others etc… Please note: I like to use a gold or silver marker to fill these in and to print them on cream/white card, both of which can be found from any quality school suppliers or stationery stores. I also print my school logo on the reverse of the card to brand it, therefore you might like to do the same. These certificates are non-editable, apart from writing names of the teacher / director and student on by hand as they come in a PDF format (unless you have PDF editor software). If you would like additional options on the certificates, please contact me or write a review and I will add additional certificates onto this resource pack. I will aim to complete any additions by 2 weeks after the review is posted. Please do comment on my resources so that I can continue to update and expand them. If you need any more information/clarification please comment and I will update my resources ASAP!

Contentless Scenes ('Open'/ 'Ambiguous' Scripts) Drama, Theatre Resources, GCSE, A Level, KS3
TalthybiusTalthybius

Contentless Scenes ('Open'/ 'Ambiguous' Scripts) Drama, Theatre Resources, GCSE, A Level, KS3

(1)
A note from the author: Included here are a selection of Contentless Scenes for use in lessons. Contentless Scenes (sometimes known as ‘Open’ or ‘Ambiguous’ scenes) are scenes that have very little detail on character or narrative plot leaving it open for the actors or directors to use their creativity and imagination to add detail to the scene with endless possibilities. I use these to explore: Character Creation Character Motivation Character Relationships Character Interactions Narrative Structures Subtext Themes & Issues Naturalistic Acting / Stanislavski They are so useful and I use them with each year for different reasons. I have written 35 scenes here that are all different and useful for a variety of reasons. I tend to photocopy them on different coloured pages and split them between different years so that as we use the scenes for different reasons as the students move up through the school they always have fresh stimuli. Included: 20 Duologue Contentless Scenes (ranging from half a page to a full page) 10 Quick-fire Contentless Scenes (suitable for 2 or three actors each) Four are very short (2/3 lines), 6 are longer (4/6 lines) 5 Contentless Scenes for Three Actors (full pages) It works out as less than 29p per scene!
