TS1101E / GEK1900: Introduction to Theatre and Performance
This module will provide students with foundational knowledge of the different aspects of, approaches and discursive contexts relating to the study and praxis of theatre and performance. The module will also introduce students to the various forms of classical and contemporary performance practices and their attendant modes of analyses: combining play analysis, theatre history & theory. Using complementary content-centered lectures and practice laboratory, the module creates an environment where students simultaneously engage with module content while investigating its relations to the creation of theatre and performance.
Assessment: This is a one of the most fun and entertaining modules in FASS. Content covered on the history, theories and application of theatre and performance is interesting and easy to understand. However, lecture attendance is crucial for the understanding of the course. Lectures are not webcast. Module assessment includes a play review and acting performances, but grading is relatively lenient. The main drawback of this module is the time spent rehearsing for graded performances which varies for each group. Thus, personal time management should be a point of consideration when taking this module.
