CPPSA1002 Foundation Skills Acting Studio 2
This course builds on the foundation of practice developed in Studio 1. It is divided into two strands: Acting and Music Theatre/Theatre Practice. Acting: Building on foundational skills begun in Semester 1, this course will focus on translating and applying these skills to the written text. Students will learn a variety of strategies for approaching written texts, beginning with a fundamental grounding in text analysis: how a text may be examined and mined for relevant information; how this information can be ordered and translated into rehearsal strategies, and how it may be used in developing performance. Theatre Practice: Music Theatre/Theatre Practice is the component of the course where students explore, in a practice-based way, how acting processes evolve into performance. Students will participate in performance projects that culminate in small studio-based showings of work.
