Principles of Theatre Making

(5 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

This is the first module of a three-part course designed to equip students with the skills of a theatre director/maker. After six weeks of weekly laboratory classes using a workshop approach to explore aspects of the directing/making process, students will prepare a 5- minute work in progress performance. In week 12, students will prepare a 10-minute performance either devised or directing a play text. The aim of the course is to provide a fundamental grounding for directors/makers from which they can go on to engage with different approaches and theories of directing/making
