Institution:

Duquesne University

Subject:

THEA - Theater Arts

Description:

This course will focus on the importance of voice and movement as crucial elements of theatrical structure and meaning. Apart from athletes, dances, exercise physiologists and developmental psychologists few of us have any need to be so cognitively aware of the movement aspects of our behavior. A theater artist must think of how to convey everyday tasks, assign meaning to them, master the variations, and exercise discretion and creativity. Studies will be enriched by a Spring BREAK AWAY studying in collaboration with Pascal Guin, Artistic Director of Le Theatre Bleu, Riec-sur-Belon , France . Workshops will be conducted every morning and afternoon on various subjects. A Workshop production of the student's final project will be given before the French Minister of Culture who will also work with the students. Students will be billeted in private homes of members of the Le Theatre Bleu while in France . The final evening will be spent in Paris attending a theater performance of the student's choice. Course is limited to 15 students and student must be at least a sophomore.
