The Stuyvesant High School Online Course Guide


Advanced Acting E8PAD

Students who have completed Acting (E5PAC or E6PAC or E7PAC) may take this course. We will be engaging in scene study -- including Shakespeare and Chekov, advanced voice and improvisation, detailed criticism of performances in class, on stage and screen, text analysis and performance objectives. 5 written projects, 3 scene presentations including 1 classical piece, and attendance at 3-5 Broadway shows will be part of the course requirements. Teaching techniques include lecture, presentation, group work and discussion of acting techniques.

All assigned papers, all assigned scenes, and a Senior Thesis for Seniors must be completed on time. There are no costs, but you must be free to attend evening theater 3-5 times per semester. You should possess the ability to work with others, reliability, demonstrate excellent attendance, show an interest in performance, and have your E6 English teacher approve your enrollment.
