    The following are the various forms of "proof" a student can provide:

    • Other forms of proof approved after speaking to Ms. Loftus
    .

    Once you've seen your show here's how to write the critique:
    • First paragraph: Summarize the show that you saw. If the show is made up of multiple shows please do a short synopsis of each piece.
    • Second paragraph: Write about what you liked/what you think was successful and then back it up with why you feel that way
    • Third and final paragraph: Write about what you didn't like/what needed improvement and explain why you feel that way.

    PLEASE NOTE - THIS MUST BE TYPED!!!!!
