Description:

This course surveys the evolution of theatre, from Ancient Greece through the French Neoclassical Theatre. The course will examine the various social, political, religious, cultural and aesthetic functions of ritual and theatre as they relate to the history of the stage, the evolution of stagecraft, performance conventions and acting techniques. We will study scripts, not so much as dramatic literature, but as they exemplify ideas about the purpose of theatre within their particular, historical moments. (3 s.h.)
