World of Theatre - It's not all about the acting!

World of Theatre - It's not all about the acting!

3 Resources
This bundle includes 3 Power Point presentations. Each presentation focuses on the different roles in the theatre industry that do not require you to be an actor. These lessons are aimed for all year groups and are important to include in your curriculum. Not every pupil in your Drama class will want to be an actor and it is important to include the diverse skills that are required to bring any story to page, stage or screen. Each Power Point can be adapted with personal preference (directors, producers, composers, etc) but all are covered already with video links and images. I find these lessons to be popular with the pupils who are more reserved when it comes to performing in front of their peers. This allows them opportunities in your lesson time to design sets, play music, etc.
