Welcome to Inro to Theatre!
Students have been learning about the origins of the theatre and a variety of warm up exercises for the stage with a focus on nonverbal communication. They wrote an extended scene based off an excerpt from a play and we have been talking about identity and how that relates to the theatre and acting. 
Next week we will continue with characterization and building content vocabulary.
