Homework for Bravo

It was fantastic to have our wonderful Bravo students back again this week to kick off Term Two.

This week after a fun time of reconnecting, we recapped Term One's learning about the four 'tools' we each have in our Acting Tool Boxes. 
Students worked in pairs to recount funny stories via short performed scenes. 

Students were all issued with a short two person script titled 'Pants'. 
Homework this week is to read over the script plenty of times to get super familiar with it, ahead of our next class when we will be working on it together. 
The more familiar students are with the script the more fun they will be able to have with it in class next week. 
Extra points for anyone able to learn their part (person 1 or 2) off by heart! 

If students were away this week, or loose their hardcopies, the 'Pants' script can be downloaded from this webpage for practicing at home. Click on the script title listed on the right hand side of the page, under Resources (above the tutor pics) to access this.

 

Important Notices for Bravo

TERM ONE
During Term One our focus for all of Stage Door's school aged classes was on on establishing connections and creating a safe and fun classroom environment where we hope our students will be able to relax, have fun and grown in confidence and skill throughout the year. We take time at the start of each new year to get to know each other, play games and invest in activities designed to promote connection, team work and fun. We find prioritizing this to be absolutely vital to establishing a vibrant, safe, happy class culture and environment inline which aligns with our tag line that Stage Door is a place "Where Everyone Belongs". 

As well as getting to know each other and establishing a supportive class culture, during Term One our Bravo students focused on identifying, learning about and practicing four of the important 'tools' they have in their acting toolboxes: 
Faces; Bodies; Voices and Intellect. 

TERM TWO
This term we will learn about, and practice using two more important tools in our arsenal as actors. 

By the end of this term, students will be issued with a script for the play which the class will ultimately present at our End of Year Drama Performance in December. In 2025 this performance is scheduled to take place on Saturday 6 December, 2025 (scroll down for more information about our 2025 End of Year Drama Performance). 

Parents and Students are asked to keep an eye on this page, where class updates, practice resources and homework notes will be regularly added throughout the year.

END OF YEAR DRAMA PERFORMANCE

Throughout the year all four of our school aged Drama students work on learning techniques and plays which they will ultimately present alongside their classmates at our Drama End of Year Performance.

Drama Performance will be held at Stage Door Studios on Saturday 6 December, 2025.

During Term Four there will be several additional rehearsal sessions as we sort costumes, staging, getting ready in our space and generally preparing for the Performance.

Soon after clases start up students will be issued with a '2025 Important Dates' document with all of these dates.
