Well death is a part of life. It is appropriate but its a pretty pointless activity. Drama should be scrapped as a subject. If any kids from the UK are here whatever you do don't do GCSE Drama; it's a piece of shit.

Well it is a drama class and not real. You learn this because if you want to get into acting you need to learn how to fake die. It is completely appropriate for your learning.

well it is a drama class and the point of a drama class is to learn acting.

When we were children we used to play ''cowboys and Indians'' ( sorry, but somehow cowboys and Native Americans doesn't sound the same.) in the streets of Belfast and sometimes incorporate the game; ''who can die the best''. Holding our stomachs, twisting and turning, then hitting the ground after about 5 minuets of over dramatic moaning and groaning, it was great fun. Later on these dramatic rehearsals proved to be most useful.

I don't think it was meant to be called a game nor the teacher meaning that at all. I think the point of calling it a game was just to spark an activity. But really, if you're just acting like your dying and not getting killed literally, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. That's basically what drama class is for. You gotta know how to act. If your teacher can't teach you how to die "realistically" in drama class then I think there is a problem with that. I guess the point of dying in a "funny" way was to enhance skills in a comedic side and not a serious situation.
