Course requires that students read modern American plays of playwrights such as David Mamet, Tony Kushner, Tennessee Williams, Thornton Wilder, Lillian Hellman, Anna Deavere Smith, Arthur Miller, Milcha Sanchez Scott, and Jose Rivera, and see corresponding film adaptations. Students will analyze and evaluate play texts with attention to characterization, story, plot, narrative movement, and structure that make them viable for the screen. Students will respond to texts and films through journal entries, an oral report, and a final creative nonfiction essay.
