0505-489 - Theatre Production Seminar and Workshop

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

Using seminar and workshop approaches, this course involves students in production dramaturgy (research applied to the staging of a play). These activities are then applied to preparing a production of that play. The specific features of both the dramaturgical and production activities will necessarily vary depending on the specific play being produced. As a general rule, dramaturgical research will consist of examining the play in question both as a particular idiosyncratic work with its own unique internal characteristics and as a work situated within larger theatrical and dramatic contexts. This research will commonly include a consideration of the social, political and cultural contexts from which the play emerged. Part of the theatre arts concentration and may also be taken as an elective. Class 4, Credit 4 (offered annually)
