THE 254 Introduction to Theatre

Fall-Spring Semesters

This course is an introduction to the world of theatre and performance.  Through group discussions and activities, reading assignments, quizzes, and exercises, students become familiar with the nature and history of theatre including its discipline-specific vocabulary and theoretical perspectives.  Students write scenes with dialogue and present them to the class; they find, prepare, and perform an audition monologue; they write reviews and critiques of Theatre Division plays; they understand the challenges of designing appropriate sets, costumes, and lighting for performances; and they act in or provide technical support for the presentation of a ten-minute play.
