He stayed in the North Pole until adulthood and grew up thinking he was an elf himself. One day he found out he was a human, and decided to go and visit his biological father in New York. On arrival he wasn’t welcomed by his father until a DNA test reassured him that he was actually his son. The family grew to like Buddy, and he also found a girlfriend – but then everything changed when he fell out with his father one day and decided to leave.

This one page flowchart outlines the role of the professional theatre director, listing key terminology/considerations for students taking on the role of a director in A Level Drama and Theatre written examinations. The resources seeks to comprehensively outline the key considerations in creating a vision/concept for a production, translating that into production decisions and highlighting how audiences then ‘read’ these decisions to make meaning. The resource is targeted to A Level written examinations in Drama and Theatre which demand that students take the role of a director in staging of set texts, but is also a useful resource for the ‘live theatre’ section of the paper in which students will consider how the director of a piece of drama they have seen may have created meaning for an audience. Key terminology is listed methodically, though students can be set the task of investigating these to create a glossary of vocabulary relating to theatre directing. Originally created for AQA/OCR Drama and Theatre A Level but applicable to other boards.
