Description

This course explores American drama from the end of World War II to the present. We will read plays and consider how these works framed the times and places that produced them. Accordingly, we will work as literary critics and theatre historians, but also as cultural anthropologists who use drams as the medium they examine in order to understand a particular culture in the midst of rapid change.

This course is closed for registration.
