IB Theatre 2
Content Area:
International Baccalaureate
Description:
This course carries out the foundation of the IB Theatre 1 course and helps prepare students for further theatrical practice and study. Students will continue to focus on the primary components of the IB course: theatre in the making, theatre in performance, and the independent project. Students will not only focus on completing the IB requirements for the course but also continuing to grow in their knowledge of theatre and their practice of it in a variety of roles. Particular attention is paid to the Theater Independent Project, an independent research project on an aspect of theatre that is of interest to the student. IB Theatre in its second year will still encourage students to examine theatre in various forms around the world, and ask them to use that knowledge in their IB culminating assessments. Students will continue to critically study the theory, history, and culture of theatre, and express themselves in workshops, scripted performances, and assignments designed to help them meet the challenges of the IB assessments they encounter this year. Students will begin more independent projects and continue to work as an ensemble cast. Students will continue to work on productions in a variety of roles and study the impact theatre has on individuals, groups, and societies in both the past and present.
