b. Reviewing previous Class, what was our lesson last
lesson or meeting?
presenting the new Ma’am our topic last meeting was all
lesson about Staging Modalities.

Excellent! You are listening well to

our lecture. What about staging
modalities, class?

In the context of drama and theater,

"staging modalities" typically refer to
the various techniques and
approaches used to present and
structure the physical and visual
aspects of a theatrical production.
These modalities help directors and
designers make artistic choices
about how a play is visually and
spatially represented to the
audience.
 Impressive! These staging
modalities offer a range of options
for directors, designers, and
playwrights to create unique and
engaging theatrical productions,
each with its own advantages and
challenges. The choice of staging
modality can significantly impact the
way a play is experienced by the
audience.

Okay, so, kindly give the different

types of theatrical stages as
described by Mendenhall (2017),
Aldrey Rhon.

Then, what is proscenium stage, Ma’am, proscenium stage.

Rhon?

This type of stage resembles a

“window”, with actors performing
exclusively for a fixed audience
situated in front of them.
Yes, very good! Just like our set-up
today, right? I’m here in front of you,
and you are in front of me watching
and listening to what am I doing. Is
that clear?

Yes, ma’am.
Another theatrical stage/s, Ms.
Irish?
Ma’am, thrust stage.
Okay, what is thrust stage, Irish?

Thrust stage is typically raised and

enclosed by three sides with a
stationary audience, the fourth side
serves as the background.

Alright, very good! It seems like you

really learned something from our
discussion last meeting. Now, I
have here the learning objectives
where you are expected to learned

Down:

4. give life to the drama

Based from the first activity, what

do you think is our topic today?

Ma’am, I think we will talk about

 Yes, exactly. Thank you, Ms. writing a script.
Marianne. Now, what is a script?

Script is a written text of a stage play.

Yes, very good. Script comes from
the Latin scrībĕre, meaning "to
write," and all its meanings have to
do with something written. Your
handwriting is your script. Is that
clear, class?

Yes, ma’am.
b. Discussing new Then, what do we call to the person
concepts and or individual who wrote a scripts or
practicing new drama, anyone?
skills Ma’am playwrights.

Very good. When we say

playwrights or screenwriters, these
are the writers who specialize in
telling stories for the stage. Okay?
Yes, ma’am.
Now, who are those well-known
playwrights you have heard of?
Ma’am Alberto Florentino.
Mr. Shamel, how did Alberto S.
Florentino get famous?

Alberto Florentino became famous

because of his work ma’am entitled
The World is an Apple.
Alright, thank you. The World is an
Apple is one of the famous works of
Florentino, this portrayed a life of a
changed man named Mario, who
left his sinful past to live an honest
life with his family. Is that clear?
Yes, ma’am.

Another example of playwright is

William Shakespeare. Did you know
who is Shakespeare?
Yes, ma’am. He’s known because of
his plays like Romeo and Juliet.

Impressive! William Shakespeare

was known due to his playful and
creative mind where he wrote a lot
of literary pieces, play and so on.
These are the examples of his
contribution or his works. Hamlet,
Romeo and Juliet, and A
Midsummer Night’s Dream. Is that
clear, class?
Yes, ma’am.

Prior to that, our lesson is about

writing a script. So, what do you
think is the first thing that
playwrights must do?
The first thing that playwright/s is
create a story concept.

Okay, writers should create a story

concept, it is where they started by
brainstorming ideas for their drama.
Considering the theme, message,
and overall concept that writers
want to convey. Is that clear, class?
Yes, ma’am.
So, what are the themes that you
consider? Or do you have a theme
already for your upcoming drama,
Ms. Jofel?
Ma’am, in our group we chose love
and relationship as our theme.

Wow! Love and relationship, seems

like you are the protagonist in your
upcoming drama, Ms. Jofel?
Ma’am, no.

Alright, after a story concept the

next one is structure of your script.
In this part, this may include acts,
scenes, or chapters depending on
the format of your drama. Is that
clear? Yes, ma’am.

To make your script very accurate

and organize do some background
research. Why do we need to
conduct background research,
Rhon?
Ma’am, research can help inspire the
brainstorming process and give us or
the writer a better understanding of
your world before you begin writing.

Exactly, thank you Rhon. It is also

called dramaturgy; this can help the
accuracy of finer details in your
story. Understanding cultural norms
for specific time periods and
geographical locations for a story
can inform your decisions about the
plot and dialogue for your
characters. Researching historical
events that occurred around your
preferred setting helps ensure the
context for your chosen plot is
authentic. Some writers may even
travel to a similar location to their
setting as a part of their research.

If you already know where to set

your scenes, you are now ready to
develop the characters in your
drama. Anyway, what is
character/s? Characters are the person who will
act on stage.

Alright, thank you. Basically,

characters give life to the drama,
without them there is no execution
will happen. Is that clear? Yes, ma’am.

Kindly read the definition, Mr.

Anthony. Writing a good script requires that
the characters have depth and that
they take the audience on an
emotional journey. Characters often
evolve through the script in such a
way that they're different at the end
of the story than they were at the
beginning. Often, these evolutions
occur because of the challenges and
obstacles they overcome throughout
the story's plot or central conflict.

Characters need to get the

emotional journey of the audience.
So, in your upcoming drama you
need to act accordingly. Don’t laugh
if it is not necessary while you are
on the stage, are we clear? Yes, ma’am.

What do you think is the next step

in writing a script? Outline, ma’am.

Impressive! You are now going to

create an outline including major
plot points, character introduction,
and overall trajectory of the story.
Any question regarding to this?
None, ma’am.
After creating an outline, you will do
next is to create plot details. So,
what is plot again class?
Sequence of events, ma’am.

Yes, it is a sequence of event.

During this step, writers create the
plot outline with dialogue and
directions for set imagery and
character movement. This includes
things like a character's posture or
tone of voice, details of the central
conflict and the order of events. It
also involves deciding what to
convey through dialogue and what
to convey through imagery and
nonverbal communication. This is
the step where the writer considers
and eliminates unnecessary
sequences to maintain audience
engagement. Visualize the story as
the audience experiences it and
ensure that your characters' actions
and dialogue are purposeful to your
story's plot. Okay?
Yes, ma’am.
And write dialogue and monologues
that convey the thoughts, emotions,
and motivations of your characters.
Make sure the dialogue is natural
and serves the story. Also, the next
steps are considering the setting
and stage direction. You are going
to describe the setting, props, and
stage directions in your script. Are
we clear?
Yes, ma’am.

Lastly, editing and revising your

draft. Why do we need to edit and
revise our draft?

To make a good script, ma’am.

Yes, thank you. In the world of

drama, where the written word
translates directly to performance,
 the quality of the script is
paramount. A well-edited and
revised script can make the
difference between a compelling,
memorable production and one that
falls flat. It's a critical step in the
creative process that should not be
skipped.

c. Developing For you to test your knowledge, this

mastery (leads to activity will help you fully
Evaluation) understand our lesson.

Application of think would be the title of the story
Concepts and of your life? Why did you title it like
Skills in Daily that?
Living
For example: If I were given the
opportunity to write, I would title it
 "The Journey of a Young
Breadwinner" because, as you can
see from my title, it is a journey of a
breadwinner, which simply means
that I am the breadwinner in my
family. They regard me as a hero,
counting on me to raise them out of
poverty.
