Course description

This course uses a series of important "posts" (including post-modern, post-colonial, post-dramatic, post-human, post-feminist, and post-capitalist modules) as a framework to explore contemporary performance texts and forms. Students will study some of the most interesting plays and performance texts of the last two decades in order to begin thinking about the question: if we really are post-everything, then what exactly is the state of current national and international theatre?
