THE 238 - Introduction to Dramaturgy (4 Cr.)

(LER–TXT)
Introduces students to the theories of textual analysis and contextual research within the framework of theatrical performance. Students will investigate the history and methodologies of dramaturgy, and then apply the best practices of the profession to the study and production of contemporary plays. Because dramaturgy is a collaborative endeavor, students will participate in projects like a theatrical adaptation from a non-dramatic source, the creation of an interdisciplinary theatre event or a multi-media performance, among others. By course end, students will be able to support their theatrical interests with dramaturgical insights and to work collaboratively to create productions that reflect the culture and aesthetic diversity of the 21st century. Fall semester. Offered 2012-2013 and alternate years. Dixon.
