Imagine that you are an accomplished performer from one of the World Theatre traditions that you studied in this chapter. One night after a performance, a young artist approaches you, praising your work and asking you for help. The young performer is going to put on a production at their school and are so nervous that they are going to mis-represent the ancient style that you have studied for so long. You encourage the young artist that everything will be okay because you will write them a letter detailing everything important about this performance style’s tradition.
ASSIGNMENT
Write a letter to this young fan, telling them about the most important elements of “your” style of performance.Use highly descriptive language to help the reader visualize and image the sounds of all relevant aspects of the performance (e.g. costumes, plots, characters, acting techniques, ritual or historical connections, music, dance, make-up or masks, props or puppets, stages and scenery, etc).
