TA 300 - Storytelling in Society

Institution:

California State University-San Marcos

Subject:

Description:

Designed to demonstrate how storytelling can be used to address social issues. The class will use real-life controversy-one relevant to this community-as a base. Students will do substantial research on a chosen topic/ issue and then use that information to write and perform a play. Students will be encouraged to be creative; to experiment with non-traditional formats of stage production. Not all students will perform in the play. However, all students will be involved in mounting the production by way of design, dramaturgy, stage management or technical design. The final goal of the course is to have the play performed for the community. A post-play discussion will follow each performance. Two hours of lecture and two hours of laboratory.
