    Description
    Prerequisite: THEATER 271 with a grade of "C" or better. Students are offered an advanced, focused, and in-depth study of acting concepts, methods, and techniques utilizing scenes from major plays and authors in both historical and contemporary drama. Students participate in continued perfor- mance experiences that develop acting ability and confidence in the areas of voice, body, character development, emotional range, energy, and overall stage presence. Requirements for historical periods and styles are examined along with audition guidelines and procedures. Exercises, improvisations, scene and monologue per- formances, comprehensive script analyses, and detailed critiques are designed to expand the student's training and sharpen acting skills.
