The Steward School

Unique and Unusual: The Fine Arts of The Steward School Whether setting the stage, striking a chord, creating a masterpiece, or simply exploring the talents of the individual, students of Steward's Fine Arts program gain an insight into themselves unlike any other students in the Richmond area.

Professionalism and pride In work are the primary goals of the department.

Students are given full responsibility for their work from matting their pictures or being prompt for rehearsals to practicing music or lines at home. Furthermore, a conscious effort is made to give each child a chance to have his/her "moment in the sun." All art students have art work displayed in the halls; all students are considered for roles in lower school music productions (an attempt is made not to use the same children in major roles); all students in lower school theatre classes have a speaking part in the class play; all students in Grades 6-12 who audition for plays are offered technical roles if they are not cast as characters; and all students have the opportunity to appear on stage four or

e

times per year.

Interdisciplinary teaching Is an Integral part of the Fine Arts. Music, art, and theatre classes explore many of the same cultural or historical themes currently being studied by each grade level. For example, during the study of the Rainforest in Grade 3, the theatre teacher wrote and staged a play based on "The Great Kapok Tree," music classes listened to and re-created Brazilian music, and art classes made colorful parrots that were used as part of the set of the class play. Another example is the eighth grade English class study of The Diary of Anne Frank, which used computer-aided design in theatre class to create the set for a play based on this autobiography.

The Fine Arts faculty ensures students' work receives proper representation both Inside and outside of the school community. Not only is student work proudly displayed in the halls and office areas of Steward, but student art is also displayed in art shows, such as the recent Signet Bank show and the current show at the airport. Student artists interested in having their artwork critiqued by professionals are invited to participate in college Portfolio Day. Kindergarten students present their class play to prospective kindergarten students and their parents, and fourth grade students take their class play "on the road." In addition, music students participate in holiday concerts at Regency Mall, at nursing homes, and The Steward School. Choir members audition for regional and district choir festivals . The Fine Arts Department sponsors an annual Fine Arts Ban-

Uniqueness of the Art Department Ms. Rugene Paulette gives individual attention to each student who is encouraged to develop his/her own abilities in numerous ways. Students are encouraged to be independent thinkers making individual chioces. They are to spend 15-20 minutes per night in middle school and 30 minutes per night in upper school working in their sketchbooks. Another method used to develop talent is class critique sessions which provide student artists an opportunity to discuss their work with their peers and to learn from listening to critical evaluations . Although computerized art is slowly being introduced to the art curriculum, CD-ROM art museum tours and drawing programs are ready for use by students .

For individuals who have a particular interest in art, Art III, Art IV and Art V are available; these classes are invitational classes , however. Summer work is required for admission, or a portfolio must be presented to Ms. Paulette if the student is new to Steward. Throughout the year, students in Art III-V are required to build a portfolio and are required to enter their work in community art shows.

Theatre and music departments reap the benefits of the art students who not only paint but design sets created by the theatre department for theatre or music productions. The position of "artistic coordinator" (usually held by the art teacher) has been held by students with the guidance of Ms. Paulette.

Uniqueness of the Music Department Unlike most public and private schools who employ part-time music teachers, The Steward School Music Department has a full-time teacher K-12, Ms. Bonnie Anderson. Students in Grades 1-5 have two class periods weekly; Kindergarten has three weekly music periods. The music curriculum is structured developmentally from K-5 with new skills added at each level. Additionally, Grades 3,4,5 may elect to join Lower School Choir, which meets once a week.

Students in Grades 6 & 7 may take a beginning music theory class which studies the five elements of music and culminates in a

PAGE 2

performance on the soprano recorder. Pupils in Grade 8 and Upper School may join

Middle School Chorus or Upper School Ensemble. Computerized music writing and research programs also are available for use by students.

Students have numerous vocal and instrumental opportunities in musical performances throughout the Steward years. For example, every music student per¡ forms on stage for the "Holiday Music Program" and the "Grandparents' Day/ Spring Music Program." Opportunities also exist for students to go off-campus for musical performances such as the MCV trauma unit, Make a Wish Foundation's "Wonderland," Ginter Hall West, Lakewood Manor Nursing Home, Regency Mall's "Sounds of the Season," District I Choral Festival.

Ms . Anderson coordinates the acts for the annual Stunt-Talent Night, which is sponsored by the Fine Arts Department. All students are encouraged to participate in some manner whether on stage, backstage, or helping their friends with their "act."

Uniqueness of the Theatre Department The Steward School is the only school in the area that employs a full-time, K-12 theatre teacher. The current theatre program, directed by Mr. Ryan Imlrle, is diverse, challenging , and exciting. What better way to reach the whole child than through theatre? The child uses written and spoken English , learns new vocabulary, applies geometric and simple mathematics concepts in set construction, and may use computers to design. Students are transported (sometimes) into another time period within a play and learn to recreate emotion, to use time efficiently and productively, and to work collectively in a group while striving for independence of thought and creativity.

Grades K-5 have approximately five weeks of theatre class every year. The program incorporates improvisations and creative dramatics and culminates in a production for the Lower School and parents. Plays written or adapted by Mr. Imirie give all children a speaking role and incorporate subject matter, skills, developmental learning presented in the academic classroom. For instance, emphasis is placed on repetition, numbers, and manners in Kindergarten and

First Grade and on stage presence and memorization in Grade 5. The Grade 4 class play is designed to go "on the road" to nursery schools, elementary schools, and nursing homes and is used as a marketinQ_ and as an opportunity for students to organizational skills since students are responsible for most aspects of the production, such as set-up and take down, props, and costumes. Furthermore, students develop an awareness of their community.

a_

Grades 6 & 7 are reqUired to take one-semester electives in the arts (and computer) which allows them the opportunity to experience all areas of the arts. Grades 8-12 theatre classes place an emphasis on technical theatre, including stagecraft, woodworking, and special effects. Computer-aided design programs are used to teach set, lighting, and program design. Acting experience is gained through three MainStage theatre productions. Finally, Independent Study in Theatre is offered to those students who have completed a basic theatre course and who wish to study a particular aspect of theatre in depth.

Upper School students are eligible to ,oln Theatrics (The Theatre Arts Club of The Steward School), an honorary • which uses a point system based on ticipation as a requirement for induction .

MainStage theatre auditions are open to all students (Grades 6-12 and occasionally Grades 2-12 for a musical) whether or not they take a theatre class. All MalnStage productions are student¡run. Faculty members and adults, however, are present to assist with crowd control, costumes, and prop construction.

Since the theatre department has total artistic control over productions chosen, shows which tap the abilities of current students can be selected. Schools with less artistic control do not have this privilege.

Theatre rehearsal schedules are carefully worked around students' personal conflicts so that each student who wishes to participate may do so. Fine Arts faculty work closely to ensure quality productions while maintaining professionalism and decorum by all those involved in the program.

The Theatre Department has presentec A Summer Community Theatre productio. the past. Steward students and others from the community were able to take part in the

A Sign of the Times The Steward School Art Department encourages students to "relive'''' history through art. Entering Dixon Hall on any given day gives one a view of "The sign of the times" as interpreted by the Lower School. In

As students in the fourth grade compare the Venus of Wi/lendorf (the oldest sculpture known to man) to modern day sculptures, the fifth grade examines the Parthenon and the Porch of Maidens. The most reA project for the fifth graders is "to ima" themselves as Michelangelo" and to create their own Sistine Chapel!

Kindergarten and first grade ch ildren enhance their curriculum by creating art works about the diverse things they study in the classroom. The second grade develops a sense of design by studying units on understanding lines , shape, color and texture. Third grade recreates the styles of Mexican, African and Ancient Egyptian CU ltures.

MARCH 1995

Youth Art Month . . celebration of Youth M Month, several ~ward art students will exhibit their work with students from area schools at the Richmond International Airport from March 7 through April 4. A reception for exhibitors will be hosted by the Richmond International Airport and the Virginia Art Education Association on Tuesday, March 7 at 5:00 p.m.

A Teacher路s Point of View On February 10 and 11, I spent an amazing weekend at Hermitage High School. Over 200 students and their music directors assembled to participate in the 1995 District I Choral Festival sponsored by The Virginia Music Educators Association. The students were selected by a very competitive audition process. The District Chorus was under the direction of Dr. Marvin V. Curtis, the Founder and Director of the Richmond Festival Chorus. Dr. Curtis, Associate Professor of Music at Virginia Union University, is _ educator and composer of choral mu~ . He has the distinction of being the first African-American composer commissioned to write a choral work for the Inaugural Ceremony of President Clinton. "The City on the Hill" is one of many that he has published . "Hymn of Consecration" and "The Praising Song" performed by the District I Chorus were written by Dr. Curtis.

"The World's Largest Concert" The month of March has been designated as "Music To Our Schools Month" by the Music Educators National Conference. The month begins March 2, 1995 at 1:00 p.m. with "The World's

Largest Concert: Music Means the World to Me " broadcast on PBS. The concert originates from Kansas City, Missouri featuring the Lawrence (Kansas) Children 's Choir and the Youth Symphony of Kansas City, Missouri.

This year's theme reminds us of the many benefits of music education including the way music introduces children to worlds beyond their own. This nationally televised sing-along unites eight million students across the nation and around the world through music. The program is a multicultural repertoire including a Kenyan lullaby, ':t\biyoyo", a Tahitian Folk Song, "Hoe Ana Te Vaka" and an orchestral arrangement of "The Hungarian March" by Hector Berlioz.

The Steward School Students in grades 35 and the grade 8 music class are participating in the concert and will be listed in the national registry of partiCipating schools.

Dr. Curtis rehearsed the students for two days. The concert took place at 5 p.m. on Saturday delighting the audience who filled the auditorium to full capacity. The students gave a magnificent performance, bringing heartfelt tears to many listeners, including this director who was totally inspired by the evening.

The students look forward to the lessons that accompany a brief synopsis of the composers' lives. The interest generated by these studies has preCipitated the purchase of CD's and tapes by our students and their families . Yanni is a favorite among our students. "Yanni-Live at the Acropolis" was accepted by all with fascination and delighteven our young students in kindergarten and first grade. We can't begin too early to cultivate a love and appreCiation for fine music!

Stunt Talent Night "A Star is Born", the annual Stunt Talent Night, sponsored by the Fine Arts Department, took place February 23 in The Steward School Auditorium . One highlight of the twenty-four acts was the "Miss Steward Pageant" where 13 "lovely Steward ladies" (upper school gentlemen) competed for the title. After a very competitive question and answer session, 'tlohanna" Carrington was voted the loveliest of the evening with a close second place awarded to "Bonnie"

Stunt Talent Night has become one of the most popular school events of the year. Students create acts, practice daily in the music room during lunch or recess , or at home and then "strut their stuff" to show their hard work. The panel of judges consisting of Mr.

What is Theatre?

Theatre is a word with a magic ring . It calls up a bright and exciting picture. It may be of people in holiday spirit streaming down the aisles of the playhouse. It may be of the wonders hidden behind the folds of the front curtain . Or it may portray the hushed and eager audience, waiting for the house lights to dim.

Theatre magic also works its spell on the other side of the curtain, behind the footlights. Anyone who has ever been a part of this world knows the thrills of life backstage.

No one can forget the excitement that mounts steadily until the moment when the stage manager finally signals, "Curtain goingup!" • There are many different kinds of theaP performances. Circus, carnival, night club, fair, vaudeville, musical comedy, ballet, modern dance, opera, and operetta are all forms oftheatre. Motion pictures, television, and radio present all these forms .

The term legitimate theatre is commonly used to describe theatre with live actors to set it apart from theatre with pictures of actors, as in movies or television. The term originally meant any drama (serious play) produced at London's Covent Garden, Drury Lane, or other legitimate theatres as opposed to those produced in the unlicensed playhouses that were becoming popular in the 18th century.

The Girls' Ensemble show a teachets nightmare

Some people go to the theatre to laugh, to relax, to escape from their everyday worries and cares. Others go to be emotionally stirred. to live (in a second-hand way) through the troubles and crises of the characters on the stage. Still others seek adventure and excitement. Some are curious to find out how other people live. Some go to learn, to be taug_ moral lesson. As French actor Louis Jou. said, "Faced with the mystery of life, men invented the theatre."

-Ryan Imirie

MARCH 1995

STEWARD THEATRE PRESENTS

"The Coarse _cting Show" The lights came up. The actors stared at one another-it seemed that someone forgot to place the dead body on stage. The lights went down. The play continues with a hitch-everything that can go wrong does ... and more! The second play finds two actors stuck in a giant salt shaker. The third play contains lines and scenes that must have been on Shakespeare's "cutting room floor." An hour and a half later, the plays were over, and the audience left, holding their sides which ached from laughter.

Thus was the scene at Steward Theatre's Evening of One-Act Plays enacted this time from the viewpoint of so-called "bad actors" or, in this case, "coarse actors."

Some words about Coarse Actors. Why write plays for them? It all began with a book by the real Michael Green, The M of Coarse Acting, a sort of text-book of stage disaster and moronic performance. It seemed to strike a chord with many stage people, both amateur and professional.

ÂŤ

re are several definitions of a Coarse or: one who can remember the pauses, ut not the lines ; one who can remember the lines but not the order in which they come, or one who addresses the scenery, or stands behind a lamp to deliver lines. But these only describe one facet of the Coarse Actor-his carelessness and incompetence . There is more to being a Coarse Actor than just being a bad actor. One of the things that distinguishes him is his desire to shine. The Coarse Actor always manages to push others out of the way so that he is seen behind every conversation which takes place on stage. Another strong characteristic is to be totally undirectable . Determinedly undirectables insist on standing in front of the action so that the audience can't see what is taking place. Laziness in leaming lines, or inability to do so, is another characteristic of a Coarse Actor. This often leads to originality in hiding crib sheets (i.e.writing the lines inside a stage newspaper only to find that the props people have switched papers one night!)

However, no matter what disasters occur, Coarse Actor believes it is all for the best. really does think he-or she-is help• Ing the show along. A good example of this occurs in Streuth , where the inspector who believes himself to be the best actor on the

Blue & Gold CONNECTION

stage, is responsible for the play's downfall when he keeps repeating a cue resulting in the play going around in circles-mercifully concluding by the blacking-out of the lights .

The collapse of the set or the failure of someone to appear on stage never fazes the Coarse Actorsthey firmly believe that no one noticed!

In addition to Coarse ActThe head from the dead body and an oversized birdcage keep the cast of ing, there is Coarse Direc- 'Streuth" busy.

Coarse Set Design is readily apparent in all three plays!

Lastly, remember this: it takes one to know one; it takes a smart blond to playa dumb blond; it takes a good In a scene lrom 'Airs Well That Ends As You Uke n,' Corbin actor to playa bad actor!

IMPACT is being formed as a support! booster club for The Steward School's Fine Arts Department to ensure that the Steward and Richmond communities are aware of our school's unique strength in the Fine Arts.

Recent studies by the Virgin ia Association of Independent Schools (VAIS) and the Independent School Marketing (ISM) program highlighted the Fine Arts program as a unique asset to the school. Its program is one of which the students and parents can be proud.

Much hard work goes on "beh ind the scenes", and there is much that IMPACT can do to contri bute to the ongoing success of

the program. Certain needs have been identified including publicity for coming events and arranging locations for art exhibits , plays or concerts. Additionally, we want your ideas.

We all enjoy the final product... student artists' display at The Signet Bank ... enjoying the beautiful holiday performance that has become a Steward tradition ... or watching a "first-rate" production such as the upcoming Mary Poppins .

Be a part of the excitement!
