Workshop: Theatre and Community

0.5 credits · Undergraduate

The practice of any theatre involves ideas of community, both in its internal work practices and in its relationships to an audience. The course focuses this theme through the ideas of Augusto Boal, the Brazilian theorist and activist, and tests them against a range of theatre work from Shakespeare and Chekhov to the present day in Peterborough. Prerequisite: 4.0 university credits or permission of instructor.
