DANCE 4806 - Somatic Theater

Institution:

Temple University

Subject:

Description:

This interdisciplinary studio course utilizes specific experimental theater techniques to explore new avenues of expression and to expand the participants’ understanding of performance. Conventional categorical divisions between movement, dance, drama and play are blurred as are the divisions between “art” and “entertainment.” Areas for investigation may include stories, myths, playscripts, poetry, and personal journals. Improvisation, structured and free-form, is used as an end in itself and as a means of arriving at composition.
