THD 250 - Historical Theatre and Dance Contexts I4 credits (Fall or Spring)
In this course, students engage with the various forms of expressive performance across human history and their socio-political contexts and consequences. As one part of a two-part sequence, this class focuses on ritualized, religious, and representative performance, as well as moments of anti-theatricality and anti-iconism in different cultures throughout the world. Though we will rely in part on chronology, we will consider theatre beyond its Westernized and colonial definitions and practice history by developing complex narratives and shared understandings through shared research, discussion, and creative projects.
Prerequisite: Second-year standing.
Note: Plus-2 option available.
Instructor: Staff
