Events/competitions/challenges for your students to engage with:
• @SkyBlueTheatre playwriting competition https://skybluetheatre.com/british-theatre-challenge-2021-is-open/ (£16 per play)
This could be a good MA&T task for students or why not challenge students in their breakout rooms to write a script collectively?

Want to open up debate? Start students thinking about bigger/wider issues. Research into @SilentFacesUK’s production of ‘Godot is A Woman’ - looking at the issues/restrictions around Beckett’s Waiting for Godot and the fact he didn’t want it performed by women - but why?
A project overlapping Theatre, Archeology and History? #RallyForTheRose a verbatim play based on interviews from those who protested in 1989 to preserve the @RosePlayhouse on the Bankside. Watch here:
Thinking about your marking, assessment and reporting on work whilst remote teaching? It might be worth looking at the features of @MarkMateUK - you can watch practical work (mute your mic) and record your comments and that can be turned into a feedback sheet you can then share.
For your own professional development @weteachdrama has a series of 4 FREE webinars coming up on set, costume, lighting and sound (which you know I always promote!) 10am - 11am starting 16th Jan. http://www.weteachdrama.com
Free content from @franticassembly based on different productions with insight into rehearsal process, some production related warm ups etc. https://www.franticassembly.co.uk/frantic-digital
Quick starter to get everyone engaged whilst online? Thank you @dramaresource for this one: https://dramaresource.com/ten-second-objects/ easy to use and if working on Zoom or Teams you can put students into breakout rooms to work in groups still. Watch here to learn how:
RT and share this thread - I hope it helps teachers to have some starting points for content, ideas and ways to teach some practical Drama online and to stretch/challenge and engage in some other things as part of an interesting start to Term 3! Break a leg everyone!
