OBJECTIVES
This course will explore the diverse body of theory and commentary about theatre in the twentieth century. Course readings
will range from academic perspectives on developments and movements in theatre practice to manifestos and essays by
theatre practitioners. Selected reading material will be provided on the following areas: Avant garde theatre, Expressionism,
Brechtian epic, Artaud and the notion of cruelty, Semiotic theories of theatre, Intercultural theatre, Theories of performance
and presence, Theatre and postmodernity. The focus will be upon how in each of these areas critics, theorists and

drama have evolved and transformed in the course of the century.
