Year Devised Performances

Year 10 GCSE Drama students showed off their acting and costume design skills in their devised performances. These, together with written coursework, make up 40% of their total GCSE so the stakes were high but the students rose admirably to the challenge! Topics covered were varied and included a comic murder mystery influenced by Hercule Poirot and Film Noir, the French Revolution as it’s never been seen before, the stages of a toxic relationship (which arose from a cartoon of Kermit the Frog finding out he was actually a puppet – look it up!) and the life of Syliva Pankhurst. The students entertained family and friends with their creative and entertaining performances. We look forward to them taking on scripted extracts next year.
