Year 12: Each year the devising unit has proved a great success with themes such as the death penalty, ghosts, and mental health. Within this unit, students can explore subjects that interest them and use drama techniques such as physical theatre, script writing, mime, and camera projection. Year 13: We will study a complete play text in a practical and fun way! Rehearsing and performing scenes, building a set, and using lighting and sound to enhance our understanding of the play. We also take a trip to the theatre to see a play. Previous trips include Woman in Black, Curious incident of a dog in the night time, King Lear, and Rebecca.
