During our GCSE revision course you will take part in a range of activities, from tutor-led activities to student-led work. You will focus on the topics in which you feel you need most help but also on those that commonly cause students difficulty, namely:

  • Understanding characteristics of performance texts and dramatic works
  • Understanding social, cultural and historical context
  • How meaning is interpreted and communicated
  • Drama of theatre terminology
  • Roles and responsibilities of theatre makers
  • Analysis and evaluation of of the work of live theatre
  • How the play has been interpreted in the production
  • Identifying the skills demonstrated by the performers
  • How successful meaning was communicated to the audience through design
