LS 681 - Living Theatre

(3.00 cr.)

Students explore the process of beginning with a play text, developing an interpretation of it, and creating a solid production plan—a set of concrete choices that respond to a specific understanding of a text in this hands-on course. To this end, students read and interpret plays as "literature" and then go on to act in scenes from plays, consider the work a director might do on the text, and conceive of and execute scenic and costume designs.
