THTR 355 New York City Arts Seminar
Course builds on general appreciation and 100 and 200 level technique courses to provide students with an intermediate, comparative exploration of performance currently available in New York City. Students will attend diverse events (dance, theatre, music, performance art), which will be discussed and analyzed in depth during class sessions. Students will be assigned ongoing readings in cultural and performance theory which will be discussed in light of actual performance and which will serve as the basis for several short essays and a longer critical paper. Fee: Ticket cost to be determined.
