Theatre Practices

Contact:
 
Program Dates: January 3 - 16, 2010
This course interrogates broad questions about drama and its practice in educational, aesthetic and applied settings. Radical approaches to applied theatre will be considered, especially those shaped by Freire and Boal. Students will develop a vocabulary of theatrical skills (Physical Theatre/Mask) for use in the implementation and integration of dramatic strategies into community based work. We will also explore the ways in which drama provides contexts for developing change.

Students will read widely, observe the ways in which theory meets practice, and reflect on their own evolving understanding of the field of drama in education in a wide range of aesthetic applications. Through analysis of the contemporary theoretical foundations, students will probe ideas, read widely and reflect on thier own evolving understanding of drama in education.
