TH 350 - European Approaches to Text and Theater Performance

The twentieth century can be defined in European theatrical terms as the period that engendered concrete methodologies to performance. Previously, there is little evidence of there being any sort of structured approach to ‘acting’. The Moscow Arts ‘System’ of the late 19th century was the starting point for said methodologies. This course is a taste of some of these methodologies, investigated, for the most part, practically, as performance, in a workshop environment.
