The modernist period saw profound transformations in the form, content, and staging of drama, as well as in ideas about theatre and society that remain important today.  We will explore the development of theatrical realism, expressionism, symbolism, and other avant-garde movements through both plays of the era and theoretical writings on drama, performance, and design.  Readings will include works by and about Buchner, Ibsen, Strindberg, Jarry, Shaw, Appia, Stanislavski, Chekhov, Artaud, Brecht, and Beckett.  All readings will be in English.

When Offered Spring.
