Update On the plays 12/4

Due Dates- Students have already turned in their first copies of plays. 

Second drafts of plays are due by midnight on December 7th. 

I will read each 2nd draft and email feedback directly to the playwright by Monday December 10th. 

Final drafts are due to me by the end of the week of December 10th. 

We will read plays that are completed for competition up until time to go on break. If a student's play is selected, they will be emailed a parent signature page to send back to me to submit their play into the competition. Only 5 plays total will be chosen for the NC Playwrights Competition.  

Final 

For November

Students are currently working on writing plays that will be submitted into a competition. All classes, except the 6th grade classes are typing and finishing in class. Other classes, who do not have access to laptops in encores, are going to have to type them at home. 

6th grade 1st encore and 7th/8th magnet students are learning about interpretation to present monologues to the class. They will soon be learning about auditions as well. 

10/5/18  We are now working on Theatre basics.  7th/8th majors (VS) are working on Playwriting.

Currently, we are working on Birth to Death projects in all classes except the VS 7th/8th grade majors. 

The 7th/8th majors are working on musical theatre- specifically working on stage presence. 

Due dates for Birth to Death and Musical Theatre are both Sept 27th, 2018
