THTR 212 - Reimagining the Classics


FDR: HL Literature Distribution
Credits: 3

This course examines classical theatrical texts throughout history, from their original context of creation in the ancient world and cultures through to modern adaptations in their contemporary context. We ask the questions, “How and why are these texts a part of the dramatic canon of civilization?” and “What ties these works together across centuries and cultures?” Through exploration of the texts, students will learn about how the stories have transformed throughout theatre history in response to new audience demands and shifting cultural values and needs.
