An actor plays out various emotions / thoughts to help the audience experience them. He/She must be able to transform the atmosphere using expressions, gestures, voice, dialogs and charisma. In a Solo-Act, you show only one character which may interact with other fictitious characters, but their dialog is not spoken. The character may be a well-known personality or caricature based on community or profession. In a Mono-Act, the actor plays out various characters and thus presents a scene.
In stage II, the student may be given a situation to enact. It usually contains 2-3 characters and a range of emotions. The situation will not contain the dialog or the conlcusion of the act. (in order to test the creativity of the actor)
Language need not be a barrier, however, the chief language of the act needs to be either of English, Marathi, Hindi whlie some phrases/dialog from other languages may be used. Costumes enable the audience to understand the act better and thus it is useful for students from KG to Std IV. However, beyond this age-group costumes disguise the talent of the actor and so should not be worn. For the first round the student may choose any scene to enact. Reading from script or prompting will not be allowed. | Scroll below for details of various rounds G0-Sr - Fancy Dress (Std -1 To 0) 11 Aug, 08:00 AM to 10:00 AM
