Quick questions on Analysing and evaluating theatre in VCE Theatre Studies

VCAA expects you to analyse and evaluate staging through the elements of theatre composition: cohesion, unity, the actor and audience relationship, rhythm, tension, variation, contrast, focus, balance, space, and depth. These give you a precise vocabulary for how a production is put together moment to moment. Cohesion and unity describe how the production roles bind into a coherent whole; rhythm, tension, variation and contrast describe how the production shapes time and energy to hold and move the audience; focus, balance, space and depth describe how the stage picture directs attention. A strong answer names the element, describes the staging that created it, and judges its effect.
