CCSD Dramatic Arts
 In
theatre, the artists create an imagined world about human beings; it is the role of the actor
to lead the audience into this visual, aural, and oral world. Students of theatre need to learn to
see the created world of theatre through the eyes of the playwright, actor, designer, and director. Through active creation of theatre, students learn to understand artistic choices and to critique
dramatic works. They should continue to use drama as a means of confidently expressing their world view,
thus developing their "personal voice."
Additionally, students of theatre view and construct dramatic works as metaphorical visions of life
that embrace connotative meanings, juxtaposition, ambiguity, and varied interpretations. By creating,
performing, analyzing, and critiquing dramatic performances, they develop a deeper understanding of
personal issues and a broader worldview that includes global issues. (National Standards)
