The Greek Tragedy Project
The point of this project was to help understand why tragedy is important to modern day society. We began this by first studying Greek tragedy and why it was important even in those ancient times. We than studied a social issue (Abortion, Death Penalty, etc.). My partner and I chose to study Drug Addiction and the War on Drugs. After studying our social issue, it was time to begin our project. We started by writing a tragedy in the form of a play. Then, we had the task to convert our play into a visual component. As a class, we had the option to use a graphic novel, a live play, or a recorded play. My partner and I chose to do a graphic novel. The novel, the play, and my project reflection can be found below. Enjoy.
