DRAM 4333 - Theatre History


3 credits

[Meets the Core Curriculum Writing Practice Requirement] Theatre History provides students with a comprehensive overview of the origins and development of the Theatre Arts. The course begins in the years 400-500 B.C. and progresses forward in time to the present era. The primary focus is on Western European and American theatre with brief surveys of ancient Asian theatre and contemporary world theatre. Theatre architecture, social purpose, dominant forms of dramatic literature and the roles of theatre personnel are examined. Because the study of Theatre History necessitates the use of dramaturgical skills, the course also will include opportunities for students to develop and improve such research and study proficiency.
