The aim of this scheme of work is to introduce students to the devising process through practical exercise, research and log book entry, using Commedia Dell’Arte and Pantomime as a stimulus. This could be used in Year 9 to get a ‘taste’ of devising a full length piece at KS3 ready for GCSE KS4 or could be used as a practise or assessed devised component in Year 10 or 11. This is especially helpful for weaker students who need a firmer underpinning in devising or would benefit from a more structured approach. Included in this comprehensive scheme of work are: Full scheme of work / overview week by week Log book for students, which includes key vocabulary and even tips for analyse and evaluate live theatre. Full set of lesson plans, starting lesson by lesson, then week by week as students devise / rehearse. Powerpoint presentations on both Commedia Dell’Atre and Pantomime with links to video clips. In the first instance students look at ‘Alota Chocolata’ from 10 GCSE Plays However any Commedia / Melodrama script could be used. If you enjoy my resources I’d be grateful for any feedback or reviews. Happy Drama!
