THE1103 introduction to theater

I’m studying for my Literature class and need an explanation.

1. For your final project, you will need the script for (Play listed below)

You can select from one of these two plays. Either Fourteen by Alice Gerstenberg http://www.theatrehistory.com/plays/fourteen.html (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

or The Boor by Chekhov

http://www.theatrehistory.com/plays/boor.html (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

You must use one of these plays. You do not make up a play.

2. You may choose your “mask,” taking the role of ONE of the following:

Actor
Designer
Director

3. READ!!!! The page that has all the instructions it is located in this module stated final project resources and documents!!! I can not STRESS this enough! In this module are the detailed instructions for each of these roles. Click on the instructions document for the mask you chose, and get started!

4. Also you will find links for additional paperwork right below those documents.

5. When you’ve finished all the parts of your final project, be sure to submit it as an attachment to this assignment. It is best to use word document or a powerpoint to organize your final project.

The exception to this is the Actor. I need the video file or a youtube link and your character analysis separate. Putting the videos in other types of documents slows them down and makes it hard to open.

This project should NOT be stressful…it’s your opportunity to be creative and express your ideas and opinions! The only way you can be “wrong” is if you don’t put in the effort. Note this project is 200 points- do not give me a 50 point project. Expand on your concept and ideas for the play. Have fun!

THE PLAY THIS TERM IS either THE BOOR or The Proposal by CHEKHOV. If you turn in something unrelated you will receive a zero. You are not creating your own play. Any choice of the below you are showing how you would approach this play.

Final Project Select one of the Three options.

ACTOR, DIRECTOR OR DESIGNER

See below final project instructions. Each has multiple steps. Please read it. Designer and Director both work best in a powerpoint format or Word document. If you are doing director make sure you have both the concept questioner and the other written concept.

The Actor assignment you need to send the video file or a youtube link for me. Also then include the word document for short form role analysis sheet below.
