Students will be introduced to critical methodologies that can be applied to in-depth analysis of a variety of styles and genres of dramatic literature and performance. Reading plays and attending theatre productions, participating in discussions about dramaturgical theories, plays and playwrights, role-playing as director, actor, designer or dramaturg while researching and developing a concept for the production of a play and engaging in the research and drafting and completion of a critical analysis paper will give students a broader understanding of how to interrogate and interpret a play. This course is a Graduation Composition and Communication Requirement (GCCR) course in certain programs, and hence is not likely to be eligible for automatic transfer credit to UK.
