Your 2-5 page scripts are due at the end of class today. The class chose the theme: death. How cheerful!
A quick note of advice about skits vs. plays:
Skits are often drawn from real-life experiences or rather the focus of the skit is often on the mundane, minor aspects of human life or popular culture. Plays tend toward more over-arching broad human themes (such as death).
After you complete your quiz on Miss Julie, please complete your 2-5 page script with a death theme. No homework.
This blog is designed for Rochester City School students at the School of the Arts in support of their classes: Playwriting & Film Studies.
