Critique is always due no later than the Tuesday after the production.
A critique is NOT a plot summary. It is an evaluation of how effectively the production was done - lighting, costumes, casting, sound, set and so forth. For DTASC or Improv, how did they accomplish what they did without elaborate sets or costuming? Within the limits of a High School cast and budget how effectively did they produce this play or production?
While you are at the theater production, take a picture of yourself with the stage in the background. Save it to upload to a Google Form along with your critique.
Remember: format of Critique: MLA format, Typed, Times New Roman font size 12, 1-inch borders, double spaced, at least 350 words (so list the word count), with picture of you at the production.
