THEA 306Advanced Acting: Presentation

Catalog

Students will develop their skills and experience with performance styles from a range of theatrical periods and playwrights focusing on absurd, expressionistic, political, surrealistic and current dramatic styles in which the performer acknowledges the act of performance. The audience/performance relationship will be widely explored. Students will research and perform texts from a wide spectrum of cultural, economic and social perspectives. This is an advanced acting class that combines learning from previous classes in text analysis, theater history, scene study and vocal and physical training.
