THR 210 - Acting I

Credits: 3
Reviews and analyzes the history and development of acting theory from various cultural contexts; introduces contemporary acting techniques through individual and group exercises, incorporating tools such as observation, sense and emotion memory, and improvisation, thus expanding the student’s awareness of human behavior, thought, and language.  Students develop appreciation of theater and its basic elements through attendance of live performances on- or off-campus, in-class critical evaluation, and oral and written reflection.
