* What stage directions do:
- describe sound effects
-describe scenery
-explain the use of props
-tell characters how to speak or move
-explain characters' moods/feelings/emotions

This is an example of stage directions because in parentheses it tells the actors what to do. In this scene in the Diary of Anne Frank, Anne is taking and while she is she hands Mrs. Van Dann her coat. Since this is a play you can read Anne handing over he coat, so it's written in the stage direction to do as she says the words.

This is an example of comic relief because in this clip, it is the middle of a very serious scene. To lighten the mood of the scene, Timon does the Hula. ]]> 2017-04-28 16:27:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jm21605/4b8up94z5ukd/wish/168924651 jm21605 https://padlet.com/jm21605/4b8up94z5ukd/wish/168924717 The form in which a play is written- lines are written out for character.

This is a video of a show called Cliff Hanger. This is an example of a cliff hanger because in every episode, Cliff is hanging off of a cliff. When he almost gets off of the cliff he somehow ends up back on it again and you don't know what will happen next.]]> 2017-04-28 16:28:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jm21605/4b8up94z5ukd/wish/168924946 jm21605 https://padlet.com/jm21605/4b8up94z5ukd/wish/168925188 When you go to the theater to see movies or live dramatic performances, be careful not to cause any distractions to others.

Scenes are grouped into acts.

This is an example of scenes and acts because this is the first page of the Diray of Anne Frank. This is the first act of the play, which are the bigger sections. Then there's the first scene, those are the smaller sections the play is broken into.]]> 2017-04-28 16:31:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jm21605/4b8up94z5ukd/wish/168925672 jm21605 https://padlet.com/jm21605/4b8up94z5ukd/wish/168925780 A list of characters in a play in order of appearance or in order of importance.
