Good Drama Terminology Work Daniella. Remember to USE it as much as possible in all areas of your written work this year; be that your SWED or your exam questions. This will help you to improve your mark and will show the person reading your answer that you understand the world of drama and the terms you use in it. However to prepare you for all of this make sure you are using it in class as the more you use it in class the more you will use it elsewhere.
