DESCRIPTION
Theatre in the City places students at the heart of the experience of theatre. What is a play, and what are its qualities, conditions and boundaries? Are there limits to what the theatre can represent in terms of subject matter? How are audiences engaged, stimulated and provoked, and to what end? What philosophical issues does the theatrical experience engage with, and how are they demonstrated within the live performance event? During our journey, we consider the origins of theatre, the changing roles of performers and spectators over time and assess the theatre's future prospects.
