10 cp
Prerequisites
10 cp from 100-level units in Drama
Teaching Organisation A range of teaching procedures including lectures, seminars, workshops, screenings and visits will be used.

This unit examines a number of dramatic texts from classical Greece to the present day in the context of the theatres and performance conditions of the period in which they were written. Although some attention will be given to other traditions, the emphasis will be on the emergence of the playhouse in Europe and the social and technological implications of its development on writers.
