Stagecraft I Curriculum Framework
Description en-US:
Stagecraft I is a two-semester course which provides students with both exposure to and experience in all elements of technical theatre, including scenery, props, lighting, sound, costume, and makeup. The four strands emphasize creating, performing/presenting, responding and connecting. In Creating, students generate ideas and original tangible works. In Performing and Presenting, students perform tasks associated with technical theatre and present their work to others. Through Responding, students examine works already created by themselves, their peers, or others to analyze the artistic merit and refine work. Through Connecting, students discover connections between theatrical works and historical, societal, and cultural context. Stagecraft I contains foundational elements of theatre that are not developed in Stagecraft II and III, but the teacher may choose to draw student learning expectations from the Drama II-III Curriculum Framework. Stagecraft II is a two-semester course which allows students to advance their skills in all elements of technical theatre through practical experience, with new instruction in design. Stagecraft III is a two-semester course which allows students to deepen their understanding and advance their skills in specialized elements of technical theatre, which could include scenery, props, lighting, sound, costume, and/or makeup. Stagecraft I fulfills the one-half unit of fine arts credit required for graduation. Arkansas Department of Education approval is not required for Stagecraft I, Stagecraft II, or Stagecraft III.
