Outcome:
CP8.4 Demonstrate how dramatic characters interact in relationships within the drama and/or collective creation

CP8.5 Investigate how theatrical elements (e.g., story, character, design, space) are combined to achieve dramatic purpose.

CR8.3 Investigate and identify how arts expressions can reflect diverse worldviews.
