Achievement Summary You will be expected to; prepare the concept of a performance presentation; Plan and direct rehearsals for performance presentation; direct for performance presentation.

Shelia Winn Shakepeare- Directors Your task will be based on directing a piece of Shakespeare for the Shelia Winn Shakespeare competition. You will be given a small group of actors who will present a performance of the prescribed script of no more than 15 minutes in length that includes movement, use of space and use of voice to demonstrate a clear understanding of the use of drama techniques. These 15 minute scenes will be combined into a full length performance to be performed as a class production. You will be responsible for the concept and directing of the piece under the guidance of the teacher. The assessment will focus on your ability to plan effectively, prepare the concept of a performance presentation and direct for performance presentation. You will need to provide written evidence to support your choices, planning and evaluation of the performance.

Directing

The Director A theatre director oversees and orchestrates the mounting of a theatre production (a play, an opera, a musical or a devised piece of work). The director's function is to ensure the quality and completeness of theatre production, and to lead the creative team into realizing his or her artistic vision for it. The director therefore collaborates with a team of creative individuals and other staff, coordinating research, stagecraft, costume design, props, lighting design, acting, set design and sound design for the production. In contemporary theatre, the director is generally the primary visionary, making decisions on the artistic concept and interpretation of the text and its staging. Different directors occupy different places of authority and responsibility, depending on the structure and philosophy of individual theatre companies. Directors utilize a wide variety of techniques, philosophies, and levels of collaboration.

Task 1 Preparation As a class we will explore various drama techniques and how they may used. We will also look at various ways of presenting Shakespeare and the nature of Shakespearian text. The teacher will explain and discuss the selected scenes based on the theme Crimes and Misdemeanours. You will be given an opportunity to direct a scene. Discuss with your teacher the overall framework of the production and how your scene will fit into this framework. Record this framework in your portfolio.

Scene – Themes and ideas (Provides evidence for Task 1) After reading through the scene – research how this scene fits into the whole play and what are the central themes or ideas being dealt with. This should help you think of some ideas for a concept for the production. Brainstorm some of the key concepts in the scene and create a visual collage to help extend your ideas. Write a short (500w) description of your concept to present to your design team. Ensure that everyone has a copy of your final production brief so that you are all working on the same idea.
