THTR 385 Directing II

This course focuses on directing techniques for contemporary, realistic plays. Consideration is given to choosing material, script analysis, visualizing a production, auditions and casting, rehearsal techniques, characterization, physicalization, and the actor-director relationship.  Dramaturgical research skills will be stressed to inform the student director’s interpretation of the script and directing choices in rehearsal. Students will work on scenes and exercises in class, and will complete several projects, which necessitate rehearsal time in addition to class time. Additional lab fee applies.
