Event Date: September 15,
2012
The objective of this event
is to script and perform an
outstanding drama based upon
some variation of the theme
of “Duty.”
Rules
-
Each House will have up to
six minutes for their
performance.
- The theme of the drama
should center on some
aspect of the concept of
“Duty” (Houses have
freedom to determine the
specificity of the drama
theme and content,
provided there is an
intuitive relationship
with the broader idea of
Duty).
- A minimum of 75% of
first-year House members
and the Helmsmen must
participate in the drama.
A House may incorporate
other upperclassmen as
desired.
- Optional: The House
may base their drama on a
movie clip of their
choice. The clip must be
no longer than sixty
seconds. The House is
responsible for its own
video setup and
technician.
- Each House must bring
their own props.
Judging
- A panel of judges will
consist of faculty and
staff.
- The panel will use the
following criteria for
judging performances:
- Theme: Clarity,
quality and relation to
idea of “Duty”
- Substance:
Thoughtfulness and
significance of content
- Creativity
- Quality of acting
- Incorporation of all
first-year team members
- Ten points will be
deducted from the final
score for every thirty
seconds a House goes over
the five minute time
limit.
- Houses will be
penalized for excessive
sarcasm or unedifying
content. Each judge will
have the authority to
deduct up to three points.
Penalty points will be
deducted from the total
score (e.g. If House
scores 88 on their
performance, and two out
of four judges deduct two
points, the final score
becomes 84).
Awards
Houses will receive
points according to the
Major Event scale. |
