Course Description:
This course is a terrific gateway into the Department of Theater and Dance. We will investigate how movement, voice, ritual, physical space and design are basic elements of performance. By examining a number of different traditions and modes of practice we can deepen our knowledge of the performing arts as human expression and meaning making. Celebrating our individual and shared stories we will play with new contexts and intentions to develop artistic potential. Through practice, reading, writing and viewing we will engage with a combination of historical, theoretical and experiential perspectives that prepare us for further creative study. |
