DRAMA 414 — Scene Study IV

3 credits
Fall
Evan Yionoulis

In fourth-year scene study, actors will be asked to integrate all aspects of their training as their work moves towards more specificity, depth, and ease. Starting with work on scenes from Bertolt Brecht, Suzan-Lori Parks, and Luis Valdez, students will add analysis of the “story of the scene” to their practice, as well as develop their awareness of the political dimension in these writers’ works. Running through the semester will be work on individual Interview Projects in which students will embody and give voice to the verbatim text of a person or persons they have interviewed in preparation for sharing the work with the Drama Division community.
