Overview of class
This course studies literary fiction and non-fiction through performance. It explores how performance helps the performer and audience interpret a literary text, as well as express challenging political and personal themes. The diverse materials in the course examine the ways performance illuminates the written word and draws out deeper understandings of social relations through embodied praxis. Students will engage with the material through performance exercises, graded solo and group performances, critical writing, and in-class reading discussion.
