LESSON PLAN
Independent Theatre Movement
by Drama Teacher Academy
At the time, Realistic and Naturalistic plays were not welcome at established theatres. Other venues had to be found, which led to the Independent Theatre Movement. Students are introduced to the movement and do their own activity “making theatre happen.” They will then be introduced to more playwrights of the time and read scenes. Finally, students will adapt a scene into the 21st century and apply modern social issues into the scene’s framework.
