Script a drama suitable for live performance
NZQA suppresses grade rates for low-cohort standards.
You need to write an original drama script that's ready to be performed on stage. Your script must have believable characters, a clear purpose, and work dramatically when performed. You'll write the script, test it with a rehearsed play reading, then hand in both the performed version and your final written script with proper formatting and stage directions.
You write a script that is credible and can actually be performed, with characters and a clear intention that comes through.
Your script is convincing and well-structured so it flows smoothly, holding together as a coherent dramatic piece with unity.
Your script is compelling and original, capturing something powerful about the dramatic situation and making a real impact on an audience.
