Drama is an art form that explores the world through enactment. It
is a collaborative art form that involves the creative interaction
of individuals using a range of artistic skills. Drama is an
important means of understanding, constructing, appreciating and
communicating social and cultural values; interpreting, valuing and
transmitting the past and traditions; exploring, celebrating and
challenging the present and imagining the future.
In
Drama, students can investigate, shape, and symbolically represent
ideas, feelings, attitudes, beliefs and their consequences. By
studying this major art form students acquire skills in
interpretation, communication, performance and critical analysis and
become aware of the technical processes and technologies that may be
used to heighten dramatic presentation. In the critical study of
drama and theatre students can recognise the collaborative
contribution of actors, directors, playwrights, designers and
technicians to production. They develop an understanding of the
cultural traditions and social contexts of drama and theatre.
