WKS 315A - Techniques of Drama in Conflict Resolution

Institution:

Antioch University-Midwest (Closed)

Subject:

Description:

This workshop combines the elements of theater with the tenets of conflict resolution. In particular, we will use the works of William Shakespeare to understand the ontology of reconciliation and forgiveness. Although his complete works will be referenced, we will concentrate on the characters from The Tempest including the magician Prospero, Trinculo, the clown, the lovers Miranda and Ferdinand and the enigmatic, degenerative Caliban. The workshop employs the fundamentals of actor training as hands-on approach to understanding both Shakespeare's characters and the conflicts that emerge in the play. Throughout the day our goal will be to create a bridge from conflict to resolution through the creative use of acting, movement and role-play.
