THDA 360 - Acting Approaches

In the different editions of this course, students have an opportunity to approach the acting method of theater masters, as well as acting styles and genres. This is arguably the greatest challenge for any actor. Through monologues and scenes from Shakespeare plays, students will learn to mine the text, understand the historical context in which he wrote the plays, develop voice and speech techniques, and gain acting skills to effectively bring his iconic characters to life. May be repeated for credit. (4 Credits)
