Course Description:
This class is designed for students interested in expanding their understanding of theoretical and devised approaches to directing for theater. The readings and exercises for this course will focus on the work of experimental theater artists from the 20th century to the present, examining the various ways directors and ensembles have investigated the relationship of form and content to research innovative modes of storytelling. Particular attention will be paid to multimedia and devised performance practice. Students will create work inspired by the artists and productions studied, applying theory to practice in performance work. |
