Using Abstract Drama Scripts in the drama, language and ESL ClassroomThe beauty of abstract dialog scripts is that students have to create the scene and theme of the play based on a text that is not specific. Together, through discussion and cooperation, they have to decide :
~how the words should become meaningful ~ what action lies between the lines ~who the characters are ~what action happened before the beginning of the script ~what action continues to happen after the dialog ends The scripts are intriguing and the results in performance always different, creative and interesting. They can be used for acting out, discussion or as a prompt for a writing activity.
