Drama: Tableaux

On Friday we began to explore drama through a warm-up game called "Zip, Zap, Boing!".  Ask your child about the purpose for this.  Then we moved into tableaux:  a type of drama that requires students to strike a pose and freeze without the use of props or talking.  We began with students "modelling clay" which really was their partner.  Then we moved into groups of four for more challenging ideas.  They use space, body shapes, expression, and various levels to communicate ideas.  We had a lot of fun!  Check out the photos and ask your child what the topic  of their tableaux was - or maybe you can guess it!
