Explore broad questions about theatre and its practice in aesthetic and applied settings. Radical approaches to culturally-responsive and devised work will be considered, especially those shaped by Freire and Boal. You’ll hone a variety of artistic skills that deepen explorations in both formal and applied-theatre settings, particularly in the areas of physical theatre, mask-making, and puppetry. You’ll also explore ways in which these practices enhance the social imagination and catalyze constituents.
