Theatre As Cultural Dialogue

Catalog description

This course explores cultural viewpoints through theatre and how theatre addresses difficult topics of culture and race. Through the writings of international playwrights and the study of the performance of their plays, students will experience multiple points of view on the human condition throughout the world. Many world communities stage performance as expressions of their cultural ideals, their dreams and their frustrations that are unique to their culture while still expressing human values of love, respect and hope.
