THEA 10.90 Contemporary Theater and Performance

This course explores the world of contemporary theater and performance. Readings of plays, performance texts, and articles are paired with viewings of recorded, live, and virtual work. Collaborative projects revolve around scene work and devised theater. Students will develop an appreciation for the breadth of new and recent national and international performance. All of this work is theatrical, but none of it is traditional theater. Topics include devised theater, virtual performance, theater as activism and social practice, eco-performance, movement performance, and interactive work that centers the spectator's experience. Open to all classes; this course is required for class of 2021 senior theater majors.
