OBJECTIVES: 1. TO CONTINUE OUR STUDY OF CHARACTER IN DRAMA. 2. TO ALLOW A PIECE OF FICTION TO INFORM OUR OWN CREATIVE WRITING EXERCISE. 1A1 English 17 th April, 2015

Tanika Gupta’s The Empress Last night, you read an extract taken from this play. The scene charts the arrival of an Indian girl in an English city, and reveals that she is suddenly presented with a difficult problem. Can you explain what happens in your own words?

The Empress “What are your feelings towards Rani as you read through the text? Explain your answer with reference to the extract.” Share your points with the class!

Studying Character in Drama What information is contained in plays that will help us to critically analyse the representation of characters, and help us to form opinions on these individuals? Remember, we referred to three important points during lessons on Tuesday 14 th and Thursday 16 th. When examining characters in plays, we must: 1. Closely examine what they say. 2. Carefully watch what they do. 3. Listen attentively to the other characters and what they have to say about them.

Studying Character in Drama: Rani Read over the extract one more time, paying close attention to the characters who speak to Rani. Then, working with your partner, explain what we learn about the girl from the points that others make about her.

Studying Character in Drama: Rani Dadabhai Susan Matthews Child How do we know that Rani is intelligent, curious and popular with the children? Each of these characters make points that shape our opinion of Rani.

The drama continues… Working with your partner – and bearing in mind what you have learned about Rani’s predicament in this scene – explain what the girl should do next.

Homework Imagine you are Tanika Gupta (the author of this play). Write the scene you believe should follow on from the extract you have read.
