Minneapolis Community and Technical College

Subject:

Description:

3.00 credits (3.00 lec) In this class, students will focus on the performance of a variety of multicultural readings (plays, short stories, poems) from global literature. While there may be extensive reading of new play scripts, prose works and poetry, the emphasis of the course will be on the spoken word and the effect of multicultural works in performance. It is assumed that students will not necessarily have training or preparation in performance. Classes will involve group warm-ups, vocal exercise, discussion of readings, and solo and group performances. The basic objective of this theatre course is to experience multicultural literature in performance and to share insights into our multicultural society. Fulfills MnTC Goal Areas 6 and 8.
