Course Description:
The course serves as the second portion of the capstone for the Theater and Dance Major. It provides a framework to help students develop and execute the late-stage progress of their creative research plans. Students take this course after completing significant groundwork for their senior capstone in the prior semester that focuses on early-phase project research, development and planning. This course focuses on casting, planning and running rehearsals, readying a piece for public presentation, producing publicity for that piece, and working with a technical staff as well as serving as technical support for other students. Throughout the semester students will be writing the paper that is a component of their capstone.
