Come find out why "all the world's a stage". Whether you enjoy performing on stage or being part of an audience, this course gives you an appreciation for the major periods in the history of the theater as well as introduces you to the roles played by the actors, directors, and designers in bringing a play to life. 

 

Introduction to Theatre is designed to provide an overview of the theatre as an art form: its nature, elements, genres, styles, and techniques.  Course content is based upon the supposition that knowledge of theatre—whether as an active participant, reader of good plays, or audience member—is a significant means of enriching individual human existence.
