Hey guys,

Just a thread to see how many BOS kids are doing drama for the 2008 HSC. How are you finding it so far? Any thoughts on your IP?

Oh rats, you beat me to it!

SOPHIE. · 13 Nov 2007, 11:21 PM

it actually feels really weird to be doing drama for the HSC. i dropped it at the beginning of year 9...and then was adamant about not doing it for preliminary. i don't know what changed my mind both of those times, but i do know that i'm so glad i've kept it.

we're getting all of the theory work out of the way first. so contemporary australian theatre & meyerhold in terms 4 and 1, and then we move on to group performance preparation.

i'm the only one in my class not doing performance for their IP. still choosing between costume and promotion...eep.

im doing drama for the hsc....and doing a monologue for IP most of my class is doing performance or script writing
right now we are working on Brecht theory and have been for about 5 weeks...i wish drama was more practicle than theory at my school

Im doing drama and I am doing a performance for my Ip its hard finding a piece how is everyone else finding it??

So far year 12 drama has been pretty uneventful. I'm going to do performence for my IP but finding a decent monologue isnt an easy task.

Shiv. · 7 Dec 2007, 7:52 PM

hmm ip is a bitch and a half

im doing performance

and thought of doing something from the chapel perilous, i just realised thats on the hsc list, but we;re not studying that topic so can i do it? does anyone know???

Mel.Riot · 14 Dec 2007, 8:39 PM

I chose to do promotion since performance isn't my strongest point. I was struggling to decide whether to just do it and challenge myself.. but then I knew in the end I'd chicken out. I seriously don't like doing monologues, group performances ftw.
And I'm doing 'Top Girls' for my IP.

We're doing Australian drama and kind of boring since it's mainly theory. I have a speech on it next week though, nooo

KatPadackles · 18 Dec 2007, 4:55 PM

hey Mel.. My friend is also doing 'Top Girls'. Her name is Mel aswell :P

I'm doing perfomance, Found a monolouge in 'The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath'. It's really depressing, which i hate, but i couldn't find anything else so i guess i'm stuck with it.

Trying to finish of this Drama speech now. Extremely boring!

Hey i'm doin drama too. It's kind of boring at the moment. I can't wait for the group performance. For my IP i am doing a monologue but i have no clue wat it's going to be about. Wat are you thinkin for ya IP?

***Steph*** · 13 Jan 2008, 9:01 PM

I almost did performance but also found it difficult finding an appropriate piece to fit the time bracket as well as something well written. If you go to
www.currencypress.com.au they are the "performing arts publisher" and have lots of plays etc. on there too

Hi, yeah, I'm doing Drama for HSC this year. I'm doing performance for my IP too. I've got a really solid idea and I'm in the process of drafting it out.
We're doing Contemporary Australian Theatre Practice using Ruby Moon by Matt Cameron and Seven Stages of Grieving by Wesley Enoch and Deborah Mailman.
This is really the first year we've had a qualified drama teacher so trying to catch up on the theoretical side sucks! Most of the class is pretty confused about what we're supposed to do.
