At DFTS, the drama classes follow the LAMDA syllabus and from this motivated class, boys and girls will develop excellent social skills, and improve conversational ability and self-esteem.
During these classes children will work on acting technique, improvisation, creative movement, verse and prose and dialects. Many different styles of scripts are covered including Tragedy, Comedy, Melodrama and more. Students will learn how to portray different emotions and facial expressions to enhance the characterisation of a role.
Drama is great for all children, they build confidence, vocal projection and nurture a child’s natural and creative expression. Through taking part in drama students will improve on their listening skills, language and dialogue development. When working on group projects children will develop leadership and organisational skills and learn to let go of their inhibitions.
