THT 232 - Dramaturgy & Criticism

The fields of dramaturgy and theatre criticism are closely aligned. This course offers an introductory examination of both elusive approaches to performance, both in practical and theory-based terms. Students will learn the fundamentals of critical discourse and dramaturgical enquiry, and will have the opportunity to write play critiques for a set number of professional and local theatre productions, as well as offering research support for the SUNY Oswego Theatre department’s present mainstage production.
