This half term we are finding out about playscripts. We have looked at the features of playscripts and we have watched a performance of ‘Scrooge’ in school. You have a choice of possible tasks to complete. Firstly, you could create your own playscript, carefully considering characters, settings and stage directions. Secondly, you may wish to design a set by creating a model box. A model box is a scaled-down, 3D model of what the designer thinks the set should look like. Follow the link below to see a model box for the Beauty & the Beast stage show.
