Staged CIO are a theatre studies group where we teach and create, taking on all of the departments in theatre such as; Acting, Writing, Lighting, Sound, Set design/building, Prop sourcing etc. We also teach the many different roles within the theatre, including marketing and front of house.
Drama teaches skills that apply not only to other academic disciplines, but also to future employment and life in general. A dramatic monologue presented to peers teaches a young person to read and memorize a text and to understand it thoroughly so he/she can interpret it with his body, voice and emotions. Through acting out a role in a play, a student learns to work closely with a group and to take responsibility for his/her part. Theatre games teach students myriad interpersonal and critical skills, such as paying better attention to others and delivering narratives.
We are looking to purchase equipment to support our teaching and enhance our performances.
