Staff) $100 ADDITIONAL NEEDS AND NOTES: I chose these productions because I hope to enable high school students to view, interpret, and enjoy Shakespeare's plays from various angles. Anything more than else, I divided Shakespeare's plays into Classics and Retellings Adapted for the Modern Era and selected the plays that fit them. The classic version is “A Midsummer Night's Dream”. And the Adapted version is "A Wacky Version of Shakespeare." Students can see and understand Shakespeare's plays from various angles, transcending time through these two plays. Additionally, I decided that the third play would be a 'Senior Showcase' and drew up a plan to exhibit photos recording the events that occurred while preparing for the play at the performance center where the showcase was held. “This is Creative Dramatics: Process or Product? Richard by Richard G. Kolezynski” states, "The immediate experience is more important than everything it leads to. It is inspired by "The students' path and journey take precedence over the destination set by the teacher." Through this module, I deeply empathized with theater education as a process rather than a product. In this sense, because I value process-oriented education, I will print photos of students' preparations during the three performances and post them in the hallways where the performances are held. Through the photo exhibition, audiences can see how hard the students prepared and created the stage with passion, and participating students will also be able to grow into future theater practitioners by focusing on the results, know-how, and creativity they have gained through these productions.
