Section Info:
Students in this course will serve as actors for the Director's Workshop directing scenes. You will be to attend rehearsals during class time. As American theatre communities reckon with the established traditional canon, many are seeking new diverse voices through the development of new work. But how do you develop a new play? What is the role of the playwright? The dramaturg? The director? In this course we will consider varied approaches and best practices in this venture of developing new work. This course will also discuss the paths of the new play and the ways in which they often get stuck in development, the reasons for the stall or the successful move to full production in the regional theatre circuit and the path to Broadway.
Restriction(s):
Restricted to Theatre major(s).
