Theatre HL PPP Section 3

[Kellene]

I've read the rubric but I'm still a bit confused about what to write in Section 3.

Could someone give me some examples?

My teacher wasn't entirely clear on that portion as well, but this was my interpretation:

Look at the decisions you made within your pitch. (For example, you choose your show to include audience participation.)

Why did you make these decisions? (The audience can understand the message of the show better when they participate)

How do you know? What prompted you to think this way? (Essentially, what is the real world connection? Here, it could be a connection to Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed)

I hope this helps. You just need to justify the decisions you made, and be sure to tie them back to research/your IB theatre class.

The PPP was the most fun thing for me in Theatre. You're pretty much supposed to get inspiration of producing your own play from the stimulus that you choose. :3

That being said, you would have to decide on all the details on: stage, lighting, costumes, make up, music etc.; and remember to ALWAYS state WHY you have chosen A, B, C etc. and of course refer to a theoretical approach (for example, Theatre of Cruelty or Epic Theatre) that inspired you for making such decisions.

Include all the necessary things that may help the examiner see how you want to realize and how you wish others to visualize the play, such as mind maps etc.. State what type of effect you want on your audiences, and once again, state why. Be as creative, original, and as detailed as you possibly can.

And of course look meticulously at the criteria and see what things you could include to get you the points you want for this project. Good luck! Hope this helps!
