OBJECTIVE

SWBAT identify stage directions and analyze author’s purpose in using them

Stage Directions

Instructions that describe how a character moves and speaks. – When reading a play’s script, stage directions are

often written in italics. – The audience does not hear these instructions. – Instead actors memorize them when they are

practicing and then use them as suggestions for how to become a certain character.

Dialogue

The words spoken by characters when there are two or more characters speaking together.

Monologue

A long speech by one character to another character. – More than one character is on stage, but

only one is speaking (for an extended period of time)

Soliloquy

A character is alone on stage speaking to him/herself or to the audience.– No other characters are on stage at this time

Dramatic Irony

The audience knows something that the characters do not know yet.
