Welcome to Patana's Theatre Arts site!

Hello Y12!

This blog is for you to post ideas, thoughts, words of wisdom, links and homework. You might like to use your responses and entries on this blog as the basis for your journal entries. If you are doing this, then make sure your entries are of sufficient length and depth - it's easy to be superficial on the web.

I will post an entry once a week unless there is something specific I want you to comment on, in which case, you will know from the home work database as well. Your deadline for entry onto the site is midnight Sunday unless there are exceptional circumstances.

So here is your starter for this week: link to this post with a commentary about your work on Arabian Nights. How do you see your role as technical crew? What do you hope to gain from the experience? What new skills are you picking up? Are you using any old skills in different ways? Why is it when I set a simple task like 'find a design for an Egyptian costume' it takes the average Y12 student three weeks to come up with one internet print?! We can keep this thread going throughout your work on Arabian Nights. Get writing!
