    performance for your teachers and peers. This learning task will also be

    your progress.

    5. What is the best live performance you have been to? (musical, comedy, concert etc)
    6. What would you like to achieve in this subject this semester?
    Character

     There will be times when you will act on stage in a scripted play and perform for
    an audience in a drama you have created yourself. When this happens, you will
    need to form and develop characters that are believable and interesting. To do this,
    you need to be able to imagine yourself in someone else’s place and become them
    to a certain extent. These characters must not only seem like real people, but they
    must also have fully developed personalities which are believable, appropriate and
    effective for the particular drama in which they appear. The best way to interpret a
    character is to imagine their whole life story before and after the drama, and to try
    and invent valid reasons for the way in which they behave. For example, an angry
    nurse or doctor might have suffered serious injuries more than once while trying
    to help patients, and as a result might now be wary all the time and suspicious of
    everyone. Developing these skills is called characterisation.
