  • Music & Lyrics
    Music & Lyrics Music & Lyrics By following the steps on the site so far, students will have created their characters and begun to plot out their scene. The next step is to think how they might add music and songs. For students who are just writing a scene, this is still an exciting step to fully understand the process of creating a musical for the theatre. The activities in this section are aimed at students of all musical abilities. For some students, the activities may be part of an early introduction to music. Other students may be much more familiar and so able to tackle the extended tasks where listed. Using the Music Webpage: The films on the Music web page will give students a real insight into Tim Minchin’s process for creating lyrics and music. After watching his interview, students can play with the sound buttons on the site to start to build up their ideas for the music for their song. Songs don’t have to be set to music but using the buttons and taking part in activities will give them a good start for thinking about the tone of their song and what kind of music might suit their lyrics. The activities outlined in this resource pack are also accompanied by a film showing how they might be used in the classroom. The exercises aim to help the students write rhythmically and lyrically. The resources can also act as standalone activities that can be adapted to other forms of music in your school curriculum. Useful Starting Points: Getting the students used to describing different styles of music and understanding the function of songs in storytelling.

Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater announces the expansion of its online programs and events through August 2020. Arena Artistic Director Molly Smith has curated a diverse and engaging Spring/Summer Season, Looking Forward, connecting artists and audiences locally and nationally. In addition to the popular and in-demand Gifts of Art, Molly’s Salons, Broadway dance classes and Civil Dialogues, Smith has created a robust line-up of programming. “I had a major realization a few weeks after we closed our physical doors that without plays happening on our stages at Arena, the best way to communicate with our audiences is online,” says Artistic Director Molly Smith. “We are thrilled to share the Spring/Summer Season of Looking Forward. What makes us different from anyone else? We will always be in high touch with you even online and we promise to engage you intellectually, politically, emotionally and spiritually just like we do in the theater.” Arena will premiere two films that capture the heartbeat and spirit of the D.C. region’s response to COVID-19. Arena’s education program, Voices of Now, moved its rehearsals online following the closure of schools and adapted their traditional original theater showcase to film. Inside Voices: a film by Arena Stage’s Voices of Now ensembles is a time capsule created by 120 student artists’ through a devised theater process.
