THEA 210 Backstage Experience
Students are introduced to the fundamental principles of theatre design and the artistic operation of theatre through lectures, hands-on participation, class discussions, sketchbook, journal of design observations, critical reviews of realized productions, text analysis, and weekly presentations. Throughout the semester students perform design assignments that are then presented and critiqued by both students and faculty in class. The course culminates in two ways: a collaborative project in which students create a design for a designated play text with conceptual rationale presented before the class; a production assignment in which students participate as a member of the tech/design/run crew, afterwards reflecting on and evaluating the experience.
