THD 201 - Theatre History I4 credits (Fall or Spring)
Cross-listed as: GLS 201 . Through lecture, discussion, and practicum this course investigates leading examples of world performance from the classical and medieval periods in Western Europe and Asia, the Americas, Renaissance Europe, and 17th & 18th-century Europe. Through engagements with literary, historical, and critical texts, we will situate landmark performance texts within their sociopolitical and artistic contexts. Our study will also engage in explorations of dramaturgy (how the theatrical past comes alive on contemporary stages), historiography (debates in the writing of theater history), and dramatic and performance theory.
Prerequisite: Second-year standing.
Note: Plus-2 option available.
Instructor: Staff
