Description:
This course examines how theatre art is created to express and communicate actions
and their resulting ideas and emotions. We will look at relevant concepts and terminologies
of theatre, as well as historical and artistic contexts from which plays arise. The
emphasis is on examples of how theatre functions as art which can both entertain and
help document and process the human experience.
