Workshop Led by Professional Ballet Dancer
Year 13 Drama and Theatre students learn from the best!
Our Year 13 Drama students were recently joined by special guest Mr Ravet, a parent of a Year 13 student and a professional ballet dancer and teacher. Mr Ravet helped the group prepare for their final practical exam performance and work on an original devised piece inspired by Frantic Assembly, which is rooted in physical theatre and dance.
The session saw him work with the students in developing the relationship between characters through the forum of dance and building confidence in lifts, turns and how emotion can be translated through dance. The students were able to hone their ideas and consider thoughtfully how relationships can be shown through physical theatre.
Mrs Cook was pleased with the progress made, ‘it’s always such a delight to have special guests in to share their expertise and give the students other perspectives on their work, made particularly special that the visitor was part of our parent community. The students embraced the workshop with confidence and flair. Such a productive morning for Year 13 Drama!’
