of the following: copyright protection, royalties, public domain, intellectual property rights)
Teacher prompts: “What can we do to ensure that we are working safely in a theatre space?” “How do you determine whether a play you want to produce is protected by copyright law?”
C3.2 identify and apply the skills and attitudes needed to perform various tasks and responsi- bilities in producing drama works (e.g., use active listening and cooperative problem-solving skills; practise punctuality; use tact in suggesting changes and improvements; demonstrate willingness to accept criticism and build consensus)
Teacher prompt: “What are your obligations to the group? What can you do to help the team succeed?”
C3.3 demonstrate an understanding of theatre and audience etiquette, in both classroom and formal performance contexts (e.g., as a performer: show willingness to take direction and behave appropriately towards other actors; as a viewer: demonstrate respect for performers and other audience members by paying attention, not interrupting or talking, and applauding when appropriate)
Teacher prompts: “What are the characteristics of a good audience member?” “Why does theatre management ask the audience to turn off cellphones during a performance?”
