Theatre Appreciation: Classics & Adaptations

This interactive and community building class will be a space to enjoy, discuss, and create theatre. The theme for the winter is Adaptations & Classics. We begin by exploring "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller through scenework and dramaturgy (history and background of the play) including viewing a professional filmed version of the play from National Theatre Live in class. Next, we'll dive into the contemporary play "John Proctor is the Villain" exploring how it responds to and challenges Miller's classic. Then, we'll take a class field trip to see the Seattle Rep production of the show. Whether you're an avid theatre lover, or want to dip your toes into a new artform, come and join the discussion. No theatre experience necessary, this class is a great introduction to local theatre!
