Once you have saved your images and we have discussed them in class, your group will choose one Scenario from the choices supplied, on which you will base your script.  Write your script using the template provided.
(See Greeks Go Modern) 
The template is also copied into your Workgroup folder in your Starr Locker, so that all members can write to/work on it.  Once you have your plot outline and all characters, you can begin designing your masks.

Sketch a picture of the mask you want to create, based on the images you've seen and the character you are creating.  Use the mask template given to you by the teacher.  You may do a full or half mask.  Creativity is key; will we know something about your character by seeing your mask?   Be sure to show the teacher your ideas before you finalize your mask.

On the designated day, your group will perform a rough draft of your scene for the teacher and the class, using masks if you have them ready.  We will give you feedback to help you improve your script and your performance.  Make revisions to your script, finish all masks, and ready costumes and music for your final performance.  Finish memorizing your lines.  Write your name somewhere on the inside of your mask.  Remember that this is a festival competition!  You want your script and performance to amaze the crowd and win the laurel wreath!

Final Performances. (You must turn in a copy of your final script on the day of your performance.)

Complete the RUBRIC HANDOUT as a group.  Did you accomplish what you wanted?  Was your performance as good as you hoped?  Did everyone contribute more or less equally?  What would you do differently if you were doing this project again?  How do you feel about using masks?  What kind of theatre were you doing?

We will also watch the videos of the performances, so that you can see yourselves and do a verbal critique of your group's work.
