[GEOG MAJORS] Drama 441: Repeatable and open to ALL levels of students

[Nell Gross]

The School of Drama will be offering a second playwriting course, Drama 441, in winter quarter, and, contrary to what its course number leads us to believe, it truly is a BEGINNING playwriting class.  Here is the description:

Experimental Writing Course Description:

Experimental writing pushes past the creative boundaries of existing traditional storytelling techniques to explore new ways of telling new stories. As a politicized aesthetic created in response to cultural crisis, it is all about breaking the rules and creating new ones! In this class, we will read and create work that offers new ways of experiencing drama, reconsidering history, and interpreting identity. We will focus on innovative storytelling techniques that are playful, bizarre, risky, or controversial. Works that alter conventions of space, theme, language, symbolism, and other elements. Works that push against the assimilationist impulses of traditional theatre to create innovative new ways of engaging with the audience as citizens. In this class, theatre becomes a laboratory for a radical new vision of the world.
