Learning Outcomes
The term 'post-dramatic theatre' is proposed by the german theatre specialist Hans-Thies Lehmann and it aims to address scenic realities -contemporary as well as older ones- which deviate substantially from the traditional model of dramatic theatre. The course aims to offer an overview of the post-dramatic theatre landscape of our day, in order to furnish students with the appropriate methodological tool that will enable them to approach and analyze this new and prevalent language of the stage. The course is examined by end-of-term exams in combination with practical or theoretical mini research projects on the notion and the practice of 'post-dramatic' theatre, undertaken by the students during term (continuous assessment).
