In Y8 Drama, boys have been studying the work of ‘Vamos Theatre Company’ – they have watched a full digital performance of their play ‘Dead Good’, which came to the Bridge House Theatre in 2019, and now they have embarked on a creative project inspired by the production. They have each made an original Vamos-style full-face mask, and are now working to develop their own masked performances in pairs over Teams video call. Mask work is important in Drama as it asks the boys to focus solely on their physical skills, exaggerating their gestures and body language in the absence of being able to talk! Here are some of the wonderful masks that 8G have made.
