Writing coursework, especially at the A Level, can be a challenging and time-consuming task.

A
Drama coursework requires a deep understanding of the subject, critical analysis, and the ability to
articulate your thoughts effectively. Here are some reasons why it can be difficult:

1. In-Depth Analysis: Drama coursework often requires a thorough analysis of plays,


characters, themes, and theatrical techniques. This involves delving into the nuances of the
text and understanding the context in which it was written.
2. Research: Effective coursework requires extensive research to support your arguments and
provide evidence for your analysis. This may involve reading various literary criticisms,
historical context, and other relevant materials.
3. Creativity and Originality:A Level Drama coursework often demands a creative and
original approach. You may be asked to interpret a play in a new light, propose your own
staging ideas, or explore the relevance of the play in a contemporary context.
4. Time-Consuming: Balancing coursework with other academic and personal commitments
can be challenging. Students often find it difficult to allocate sufficient time to research,
draft, and revise their coursework thoroughly.

While undertaking these challenges can be a valuable learning experience, some students may find it
beneficial to seek assistance when needed. For those struggling with their Drama coursework, ⇒

It's important to note that seeking help should be done responsibly and ethically. Students should use
external assistance as a supplement to their own efforts and not as a substitute for genuine learning.
Ultimately, the goal is to develop the skills necessary for independent critical thinking and academic
writing.
It is seen that the clothing worn by the characters also reflect their statuses and personalities. Also
another reason not mentioned is that women that are in love with their partners just don’t want to
leave them because they love them and expect them to change one day. Mary was dressed to portray
her as cheap, it also reflected the fact that she was trying to wear clothes from her lost youth.
However we altered that and decided to use all of the performance space that we were given. From
choosing a piece of drama this old, we can see how our theatre today has developed from previous
ideas and techniques. It also shows us how important religion was to them and how they worshipped
different gods to us; it is very interesting because this is how theatre started off in ancient Greece.
We used a end on style of seating and staging for the performance. Another reason I think that we
froze the scene at this moment was to emphasize the fact that this man was very insane, and was
willing to cause a scene in a public area. Coloured fairy lights lined the bar signs around the set. For
example my character, a shelf stocker, I thought would have worn his uniform very untidy and have
his shirt hanging out his top button undone etc. In the prison scene of Chicago (mentioned in
“inspirations” and “research”) they all chant one word which describes their story of what happened
between them and their men (why they killed them). When Sadie does dress up to go to the club, she
wears again mismatching clothes and wears sandals with socks. The similarities that character has
with my character is that he knew a lot about all the group, like their names, and their age but he
didn’t let them know until half through the play. Priya’s character will also need excuses for why she
is with him and they’d be dependency and love. Making this happen took years of honing our
business processes, months of demanding staff training, and tons of cutting-edge solutions to ensure
that you get the treatment you deserve. If you need an undergraduate-level essay for college, you
don’t need to overpay for a Ph.D. degree-holding expert. This gave each of us chance to develop our
role as the character by studying their roles in the Bacchae and incorporating their feeling in the
devised piece. Our tones of voice (men and women) were good and were believable but we need to
slow down our pace and take our time when saying our lines. This was our group’s first inspiration
for our devised piece we decided to base our play around the treatment of women and the unity of
women coming together to fight against men, because of the unfairness towards women. Lights were
used in the club and gave a really good effect. What we were meant to do in the scene was imagine
that we were out on our first date, at a restaurant or the cinema, where couples typically go for dates.
And we knew our climax has got to be about the anger and revenge of women, when we were
talking about this I mentioned the jail scene in Chicago the musical where all the women were bitter
and vengeful of their men, they had all murdered their husbands and were proud of it, they justify
why they did it, from this we thought of the play being about proving the point or justifying how
women are treated badly by men. The content of this scene will include a dialogue between the
original Bacchae characters of Pentheus, Dionysos, Agave and Kadmos.The scenes, which we will
include, will be a scenario in which Dionysos visits the house of Pentheus, A fight scene between
Pentheus and Dionysus with music in the background and Kadmos Narrating the scene. In one
particular scene, Josh and me were involved in a fight, but before that scene, me and Josh showed
signs of tension between us and the odd glare at each other. Throughout her monologue Sarah often
grips the toy tighter and tighter to show the rage that is building up inside her for Brenda. The
clothes hid her femininity and ensured she wasn’t noticed. We used different lighting effects to
convey different moods, along with music in the silent fighting scenes and the abstract scene of the
play to place emphasis on the different emotions that we where trying to convey. With the sound I
think we created a feeling we made the audience feel as if they were in the cellar with us, by playing
thunder storm in the back round and having dripping sound and most effective sound effect was the
gas coming out of the vents which made it realistic for both actors and audience. We then worked on
our basic outline for our dialogue, as we didn’t have enough time to remember it. Crosscutting can
also be used to illustrate a narrative action that happens in several places at approximately the same
time.
After we had both created out monologues we found it difficult to fabricate our ideas together at
first as we had a lot of conflicting opinions as to how we wanted to perform the practical. However
at one point I revealed his more aggressive side when he talks about what should happen to her. Also
one of the props for the dinner table was a paper Mache piece of ham, this was picked up by my
character in a threatening manner during an argument between the characters and both raised voices
and body language was used to incorporate all our actions together. Making the sounds of his
footsteps and everything he does as loud exaggerated thuds, and as I get closer to Priya the thudding
then starts to sound like heartbeats getting faster and faster and I put my hand on her shoulder and
there’s one last loud thud, I’ve arrived. We were then told to devise and develop our own individual
monologues. I feel that my best strength was giving a good input into my group by encouraging my
fellow group members and by also by putting ideas into the play and also help fellow members if
they made a mistake etc. Whilst we were in the process of creating our monologues we conversed
about the different characters we could implement for this practical. Nowadays parents in a
relationship both parents are often of the same status and importance, for example: job recognition,
how they are treated by society; something that was not common in the past. This helps me to
understand my character because I know that he uses certain mechanisms to save himself from
blame and feeling guilty. The area’s that I struggled in was deciding on giving my character an
accent, because I think it would have made a bigger impact on the audience that way, and we were
also told to make our play as real as possible so giving him an accent would have made it that just
more realistic. After cutting short her training at RADA she became interested in socialist and
agitprop (agitated propaganda) theatre. And so after some convincing I won my case, under the
condition we try and merge this scene with the realistic one. It is obvious that these two needed to
sort some things out after their engagement party. Being an Arab man then made me consider
putting on an accent, to make it a little more interesting and then I thought of a background story
between me and Priya just by knowing my character a little more. For the first few lessons we
worked alone as we both agreed it would be. Also another reason not mentioned is that women that
are in love with their partners just don’t want to leave them because they love them and expect them
to change one day. ESL students can request a piece written in simple English. The audience also
liked the atmosphere that I created when I dropped the diary. But when we used the courtroom
drama we had to act as defence as well so you started thinking about both sides of the story, and
maybe reasons for why they did it. Initial ideas for staging the devised piece will be to once again to
place great emphasis on body language and speech, also to use music as a way of getting emotions
across in the silent fight scene. If you need an undergraduate-level essay for college, you don’t need
to overpay for a Ph.D. degree-holding expert. For my grandfather we had him very sharp looking
shirt tucked in and what not. I thought my stance at the end of the play where all the other
characters are lying on the floor and me standing over them gives me a powerful stance. Also I made
David sort of antsy, as if he were very nervous or unsure about whether he should ask Claire or not.
Comparing Professional Play, Stone Cold With Our School Production, Bench M. I also find it
difficult to put myself in a man’s shoes but using the techniques of Stanislavsky I try to understand
my character in order for me to be him, everything he does should be for a reason (action for a
purpose). However we altered that and decided to use all of the performance space that we were
given. Reviews Select overall rating (no rating) Your rating is required to reflect your happiness.

The worksheets are not designed to be writing frames and I would advise against giving them to
students to use for that purpose. This not only showed the house fire effectively but also shocked the
audience, this got the attention of all of the audience. In one particular scene, Josh and me were
involved in a fight, but before that scene, me and Josh showed signs of tension between us and the
odd glare at each other. In the olden days most of the fear was based around witches because they
were conveyed as the biggest outsiders. Sarah’s character is very sentimental, as she has lost her
baby and her husband because of the event. All of the articles ceased to amaze me on the fact of how
terrible human being can be. But when we used the courtroom drama we had to act as defence as
well so you started thinking about both sides of the story, and maybe reasons for why they did it. We
were then told to devise and develop our own individual monologues. This seemed a really strange
moment as all of the focus of the audience was upon her. After we had both created out monologues
we found it difficult to fabricate our ideas together at first as we had a lot of conflicting opinions as
to how we wanted to perform the practical. It would also be very confusing and she would probably
be asking herself, why this happened to her. Also, all users regularly get promo codes and special
offers on various occasions. Many people were injured in the unfortunate event; Principal Burton
Wragg and head custodian Mike Suchar were killed and eight children and a police officer sustained
wounds. Although not always realistic both story lines are effective and do have other meanings
throughout them and still keep us gripped to the situation happening. I did this by raising the tone of
my voice and using much more aggressive gestures. And so after some convincing I won my case,
under the condition we try and merge this scene with the realistic one. At first I portrayed Brenda’s
father as being composed about the whole incident. My body language and facial expression was
key during the play, because I had to use these well to show how disturbed my character was. It also
shows us how important religion was to them and how they worshipped different gods to us; it is
very interesting because this is how theatre started off in ancient Greece. The body language
conveyed in my role of Pentheus involved me pushing Dionysos and pacing around him whilst
laughing sarcastically at him before speaking out my lines. We did this to show how normal society
blames the outsider, as if it was just easier to do so. For example, first-time buyers can save up to
15%, while returning customers benefit greatly from our Loyalty Program. Satire is usually funny but
with a moral exposition. Yet, you must understand that striving to deliver the best customer
experience, we test, interview, and challenge candidates really tough and only hire the best-
performing applicants. Some things that I thought could have been improved was keeping in
character. Connections can be made between the original script of the play and this devised scene in
the way that it follows key themes of betrayal and ignorance, as well as having the same characters
in modern day times, for the devised piece we are looking at what the characters would be like with
similar personalities in the modern world. See other similar resources ?3.50 (no rating) 0 reviews
BUY NOW Save for later Not quite what you were looking for. We had to read this in quiet, and I
could hear in my head her screaming because of the immense amount of pain she was in. Also you
wonder whether or not the person who did this was trying to kill Claire or not. From this we made
our stylised version of it, the footsteps and other actions are exemplified by a thudding sound that
will be made by one of the actors off stage, and as he gets closer a heart beat rhythm starts showing
how scared she is.
We also showed isolation at the dinner table of Stevens’s family-home. I will say it again that I
thought that the positives very greatly overweighed the negatives. Its flexibility, combined with
streamlined business processes, allows us to keep prices for high-quality essay writing services

hearted person to inform others about the abuse and violence that goes on every single day of the
year. This was similar to World War 1, with its huge indiscriminate death toll for all sides. We had to
read this in quiet, and I could hear in my head her screaming because of the immense amount of pain
she was in. I could mention these kinds of reasons in my monologue. Whilst we were in the process
of creating our monologues we conversed about the different characters we could implement for this
practical. I did this by using a variety of drama devices such as using intentionally pauses, keeping
my facial expressions fairly neutral. If this were done we might have not read about Claire and
David’s story in this workshop about abuse in relationships. I developed some skills during rehearsals
like hot seating. She used a rifle that she had recently been given for Christmas by her father. For
over a decade of operations, PaperHelp honed its problem-fixing skills to perfection, becoming one
of the most effective and reliable writing help services favored by US students. Other than these two
reason would make the person extremely violent so that they enjoyed hitting, burning, cutting etc.

loudly and with confidence. I thought that since I was being an Arab and Priya being English this
would of course be a big culture clash, and being part English and part Egyptian myself I also knew
about having a culture clash, and then this could be the reasons for him being insecure about their
relationship and then leading to trying to control her by physical means. I found this out many times
during the workshop and as a result of this I have become a much more agreeable person and have
been able to take the middle with much less arguments. Costume was probably our best feature
because we were all wearing something different to each other, or gave an idea to our jobs etc. That
is another difference; in the 16 th century a women would not be seen in trousers, a very common
item of clothing nowadays. During the rehearsals phase we both had a clear vision of what we
wanted to do for this practical. The events in the story will lead to the death of Kadmos because
Pentheus ignores his advice. It offers us a look at how the Greeks lived in a completely different
culture to ours. Nowadays parents in a relationship both parents are often of the same status and
importance, for example: job recognition, how they are treated by society; something that was not
common in the past. With my character I had a lot of thinking to do on weather to give him odd body
movements, if he was cold blooded and so on. When in her bedroom at home, she would sing
quietly, sometimes it was just a whisper. What we were meant to do in the scene was imagine that we
were out on our first date, at a restaurant or the cinema, where couples typically go for dates.
Throughout her monologue Sarah often grips the toy tighter and tighter to show the rage that is
building up inside her for Brenda. One arm behind his back, a glass of wine in the other. We all came
up with the idea that too show the audience that time was slowly moving on, we would move to
different position on the stage but making sure that our backs were never facing the audience, which
we all thought was very effective.
