What’s a melodrama, you say? Great question! Melodrama - definition: a sensational dramatic play with exaggerated characters and exciting events intended to appeal to the emotions. Often encouraging audience participation with heckling and booing and cheering! Characters with names like Smedley Pewter, Pretty Priscilla, Doris DoRight, Cowgirl Cookie, Snickerdoodle, and Mix Chewy! (Are you gettin’ the picture???) Students and audiences are in for a HUGE Treat with villains, good guys/girls, campy over-the-top acting, and laughter & suspense nonstop! Class will tackle a number of shorter scripts, learning about the cartoon-like style of acting, and then produce a full Melodrama for an audience (Infinite Joy Studios - Showcase) at the end of the semester!
