CRW: Experimental Theater

55-4220

This course explores dramatic work outside the traditional linear narrative of the Western canon, including avante-garde, dada, surrealism, existentialism, and absurdism. Students will research authors such as Jarry, Artaud, Genet, Stein, and Beckett, and will give oral presentations on a writer's process with creative essays, as well as complete writing assignments that incorporate nonlinear techniques into their own dramatic work.

Course descriptions are stored in OASIS and are maintained by the Associate Dean for each School.
