Reading Theater

THEATRST 187S

Instructor(s):

Ferrone, Alex

Course description: In the theater, what we read on the page is an artifact of performances that once happened as well as a blueprint for stage performances yet to come. In this course, we work as archeologists to explore the meanings of the artifact and as creators--on our feet and with our bodies--to unlock the potential meanings of the blueprint. The course focuses on six plays, drawn from different periods in history and different countries, and includes non-European and non-white perspectives. ALP; CZ; CCI
