  • THEA 4702: Topical Theatre

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    In this course you will learn about important contemporary political, economic , and social events and issues in the world by studying plays which take these as subject matter. The central premise of the course is derived from Aristotle's Poetics, in which the author informs us that "to learn gives the liveliest pleasure" and that learning about a subject occurs most effectively through exposure to a mimetic art such as drama. In other words, you can best learn about important world issues by experiencing stimulating plays. Prerequisites for this course are THEA 1713, Script Analysis. It is recommended that you also take THEA 2713, Theatre & Theory, before taking this course. Prerequisites: "C" or better in THEA 1713 OR Instructor Consent.

  • THEA 4703: Historical Plays

    3.00 Credits

    This course is an exercise in advanced analysis of a range of representative plays from the pre-nineteenth century history of theatre, including works of female and non-Western playwrights. Students will conduct close readings of the assigned plays. They will study the plays structures and their particular contexts: political, socio-economic, cultural, philosophical, and aesthetic and analyze how the plays establish, reinforce, or challenge values within these contexts. They will study themes, strategies, multiple meanings, dramatic genres and movements, reactions, and innovations. The course will focus on bridging the gap between the plays original context and the perspectives and production possibilities of today. The particular plays studied will vary to some degree each time the course is taught, depending on the live performances of historical plays available during the term, specific curricular needs, and the instructor's expertise.
