Course contents

This course is oriented towards the development of “audience abilities“ - the student will go and see the performances (local as well as guests) and later analyze them. They should be able to discuss the performance, describe its dramaturgical structure, and presents the artistic language in its complexity. At the same time, the students will be encouraged to compare their experience with their local aesthetical and theatrical language. Furthermore, we will develop the ability to contextualize and generalize means used in the performative arts and possibly compare them with our own artistic language.

Assessment methods and criteria

Regular visits of various performances.
