Dramatic Performance (Group) 
For this project you need to pick an important scene from the play and perform it. You can choose to act out the scene with some friends. Your final project will need to be recorded onto a DVD or a file off an I-pad or I-phone that can be shared via email. You will be graded on your skill in reading the lines (see the elements that will be graded for the dramatic reading), your use of props, costumes, and the overall creativity of your project.
