Class 6 Arts (Kriti-I) Chapter 20, The Grand Finale, brings together everything learned in the Theatre unit—scriptwriting around a core emotion, character make-up and costume design, cardboard stage/set modelling, rehearsals, and performing a live play or puppet show.
What Class 6 Art Chapter 20 Covers
Step 1–3: Script, Make-up/Costume & Stage Set Model guides individuals or groups to write a short 2–3 character script centred on one chosen emotion (Navarasa), sketch character make-up and costumes, and plan set props using a miniature cardboard stage model.
Step 4: Rehearsal & Live Play or Puppet Performance rehearses voice projection, blocking and emotional transitions to present the final play—or adapts the same script into a tabletop puppet show—followed by class discussion.
