Drama I

Fenella Kelly

Drama I is a first course in developmental drama, rather than a course in theater. Drama I provides an environment of trust in which students can explore and develop the act of creating with the body and voice. Students will expand their abilities in concentration, observation and sense awareness, imagination, movement and voice, as well as develop the skills associated with mime and improvisation. Drama I is grounded in the principles of teamwork and students are constantly reminded of the importance of “ensemble” when engaged in dramatic play.
