Drama: Devising Day

An opportunity for students to develop their exam work and learn new techniques and approaches to theatre.

Last Friday saw students and teachers from Bromsgrove International School and Garden International School join us for our annual Devising Day. Students from Year 9 and 10 attended specialist workshops where they explored different styles and practitioners including: Artaud, Marcel Marceau and Stanislavski. The students worked in groups of eight to create a devised piece of theatre which was shared in the Jo Adamson Theatre at the end of the day. These workshops and devised works will significantly help shape the ideas and work of these drama students for their iGCSE devising exam. All students involved had a great time and we are very much looking forward to joining together with these schools next year to continue developing the opportunities our students are offered.
