Acting Out

The students in the Acting Out classes completed their CATs this week. They have been developing their improvisation skills this term and were required to work in pairs to create a shot play in response to Edvard Munch’s painting ‘The Scream’. Various ideas were brainstormed before students agreed on a scenario then wrote a script containing the general idea of the plot, along with stage directions. The actual lines were improvised to a certain degree.

The images below portray various emotions in the actors’ faces and bodies, from fear, terror, wonder, feeling nervous, uncomfortable and argumentativeness. Hold-ups, earthquakes, murder and stalking were just some of the topics of the student plays.
