THEA 392 - Performing Non-Fiction
This course utilizes performance as a research medium, using solo performance as a means to understand and critique historical and contemporary figures. Students study the figure of their choice, conducting research and creating an original script, which culminates in a one-person performance. Additionally, the elements of performance are examined via the creation of four short solo performance pieces, focusing on light, sound, color, and language. Solo-performances that are well researched and rehearsed will be invited to present at an open performance in the Studio Theatre at the end of the semester.
