World Theater Tour (Virtual/Hybrid)

EmailPrint

Join us as we travel the globe, exploring distant lands through the lens of each country’s theatrical traditions. From the colorful pageantry of Japan’s Kabuki stage, to the Aztec rituals, dances, and music that the Spanish conquistadors turned into Latin-American theater, to the political plays of contemporary African playwrights, we will expand our visions of theatrical performance and discover why performance is such an essential part of our lives. The class will include short video clips and texts of non-Western performances, PowerPoint presentations on each region’s theatrical traditions, and class discussion.
