Drama Enrichment at MGGS

On Wednesday November 3rd Nick O’Brien from ‘The Stanislavski Experience’ visited MGGS. Nick spent four hours working with a group of Yr 10 GCSE Drama students and a keen group of year 9s. 

The two workshops focused on the work of theatre legend and ‘Father of Naturalism’ Constantin Stanislavski. Stanislavski played a massive part in helping to shape actor training and the kind of acting that we see now on stage and screen. Students were put through their paces and really encouraged to think about their characters objectives and given circumstances in order to create more truthful performances on stage. Some really thoughtful work was produced and the students certainly have lots of rehearsal techniques to take away with them and apply to their own work.
