An examination of theatrical performance-making both theoretical and practical, students will work together to explore approaches to collaborative performance drawing on various modalities, including dance, theater, and performance art. Through both in-class exercises and critical readings, the course will explore body-based and time-based approaches to performance, including physical improvisation, dramatic writing, and process-based action. Throughout the semester, students will collaborate with each other to create group performances in relation to material covered in the course. In-class exercises will be accessible, and no previous experience in theater, performance, or dance necessary, but a willingness to engage in the practices will be required.
