TH 101 - Introduction to Theater

Institution:

Hilbert College

Subject:

Description:

As with any introductory course in any discipline, Introduction to Theatre seeks to present students with the overview of the principles and practices of the Western theatrical tradition. By the end of the semester, you will have a greater understanding of the history, structure and practice of theatre and see how the performing arts create and are created by our society. On a practical level, you will develop your own knowledge and skills in the various ways that theatre is created in our culture. You will expand your exposure to plays and performances, contribute creatively to the production process (your own and/or the Colleges), and learn the many facets of the collaborative theatrical craft through hands-on experience. Perhaps most importantly, by the end of the term you will hopefully begin to view theatre as a launching point for looking at your world and its representations in a different and more critical way.
