FS 112 - Drama and Culture: Text and Performance

This course will introduce students to plays from classical times to the present. We will consider the plays as texts and also as performance events. Through reading, discussion, and regular writing assignments, students will be challenged to understand the relationships between the theatrical worlds that playwrights have fashioned and the world in which they find themselves living. Plays in performance during the semester, both on campus and off campus, will be included in the course syllabus.

Credits: 4 cr.
