CUP Theater Practices Discussion

 

Please read the files that I attached and answer the following question.

Perhaps that’s because history is still very much in the present: the Greeks continue to shape our notions of theater practice and theory. And, the influence of the Church in the Middle Ages remains visible to this day in theater traditions around the world. In fact, this is a point I stress in both lectures: there are vast differences between the classical world-views and our contemporary perspectives. But, we still read and watch these plays and even call their stories “universal.”

But, what do you personally find interesting (or exciting, or problematic, etc.) about theater history? There is no right or wrong answer here- just an opportunity for you to reflect on the assignments. Please include in your response any one specific example from the readings.
