Group Acting Exams

These exams are designed to develop the student’s skills in communicating a dramatic text, in an ensemble, to an audience. Again, the group is assessed, rather than the individual, placing emphasis on the idea of shared dramatic responsibility which is essential to good theatre practice. For all levels, in groups of between 3 and 10, the student’s perform prepared scenes from published plays, screenplays, or adapted dialogue from published novels.

Entry Level

A performance of a scene between 4 and 5 minutes in length which is simple and straightforward and of a familiar subject for the student’s.

Level 1 - Foundation Level
(Grades 1 - 3)

A performance of a scene approximately 10 minutes in length which goes beyond easily recognisable stories and events, explores emotions, moods and atmosphere outside their immediate experiences and contains a variety of expressive vocabulary.

Level 2 – Intermediate Level
(Grades 4 - 5)

A performance of a scene or a sequence of scenes from the same play, approximately 15 minutes in length which continues to explore stories, events, moods and emotions outside of their immediate experiences and includes more subtlety and syntax within the language.

Level 3 – Advanced Level
(Grades 6 - 8)

A performance of a scene or a sequence of scenes from the same play, approximately 20 minutes in length which enables the group to engage with complex emotions and universal themes and the content and language should be technically challenging.
