Debary Elementary School – CAMBRIDGE AICE DRAMA 1 – AS LEVEL

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

Cambridge International AS & A Level Drama encourages learners to develop their skills in performing, devising and researching a wide range of theatrical styles and genres. They learn to communicate with an audience through practical and creative work on performance texts and their own devised material, both as individuals and in groups. Underpinned by theoretical and practical study, they learn to research, analyze, create and interpret, and to become skilled, well- informed and reflective theatrical practitioners who enjoy drama. Cambridge International AS & A Level Drama provides a foundation for the further study of drama or related courses in higher education. Students will submit coursework and sit for written portions to earn an exam score at the end of the course. At AS Level, students focus on three key areas: 1) the exploration, interpretation and analysis of the potential of dramatic texts in a performance context 2) the development of dramatic skills and their application to the process of devising based on a selected stimulus 3) the development of acting skills and their application to scripted performance. Students take the AS Level examination.
