Title: Special Topics in Performance Practice: Devised Theater
Description: Devised Theater is a form of contemporary theater-making in which, more often than not, the final theatrical product originates not from a rehearsal process during which a director and a group of actors spend weeks interpreting an already-written script provided by a playwright, but instead from a collaborative, usually improvisatory, process involving a large collective of theater practitioners, not all of them performers. Among our subjects, largely American: The Civilians, who will be in residence doing a Princeton Atelier in conjunction with the Princeton Environmental Institute; the Pig Iron Theatre; the Tectonic Theatre Project.
