  • 1.  Starting a new class—advice please!!

    Posted 08-16-2023 17:11
    My school is adding a high school drama class for the first time this fall! I am working on my syllabus and things like topics and pacing. Does anyone have any sample syllabi you'd consider sharing with me or lists of topics you typically cover in a general drama class? Websites or other resources you have loved? I'm guessing it will be a range of experience from first time actors to seasoned thespians. The class will be 45 minutes long and, unfortunately, will be held in a classroom as there is another class in the theater space. Any help or advice you can give is greatly appreciated

    There's a syllabus for both acting and for tech in Real-World Theatre Education.  It also prepares you for many things you'll confront beyond lesson plans. And it includes a robust appendix of templates in many areas that you can customize. Check it out!
