In LVI, girls study a range of drama styles and techniques that will be applied to their own practical work. They will attend live theatre that will serve as inspiration for their own work and will also be the focus for written evaluations. Girls will complete their first examined unit of study, ‘Devising’ (40%) in which they will devise a piece of theatre inspired by the working practices of physical theatre company Frantic Assembly. This will be supported by a written portfolio, outlining research and development processes.
It is not vital to have studied GCSE Drama but an interest in Drama and Theatre is strongly recommended. Girls must be willing to work with others and be prepared to use their performance skills. Large components of this course include written analysis; teachers will provide support and guidance through this, but girls must be comfortable with writing extended essays
