LESSON PLAN
Costume Challenge - Rehearsal Blacks Elevated
by Kerry Hishon
In this lesson, students will elevate rehearsal blacks and use them as a tool to enhance a play or story. Students will consider how thoughtful and creative choices with rehearsal blacks can denote character, status, mood, atmosphere, and more. Students can complete this exercise by sketching, using online images to create a mood board, or if you choose to do presentations, using black clothing items they own to create character looks.
