The course intensifies foundational work on voice and movement through class exercises and further develops acting techniques introduced in DRS121Y5 with a focus on presence and authenticity. In addition to these components, students expand their understanding of backstage processes through crew work supporting third- and fourth-year productions. Crew tasks are assigned according to individualized schedules, typically concentrated in 3- to 6-week periods and including some work in the evenings and/or on weekends.
