LAMDA

Acting or Verse and Prose (communication) Exams (children can choose).

Learners develop their vocal, physical and interpretive skills while they delve into characters and explore the background of dramatic texts. Alongside producing authentic performances of their chosen scenes, they also gain an understanding of the context and characters within them.

Working through the grades takes our learners through the development of clear speaking and character portrayal to an understanding of a playwright’s style, the influence of theatre practitioners such as Stanislavski and a sensitive appreciation of subtext.

Expectations

Students will need to learn scripts/poems etc. out of the session times and be willing to practice. In the higher grades, research and planning will need to take place.
