THR 260 Stage Combat & Movement I
This course will enable the student to safely rehearse and perform effective acts of violence for the dramatic stage. Additional focus will be given to freeing the body for natural and believable creative response by utilizing "The Viewpoints". The Viewpoints is a technique of improvisation that grew out of the post-modern dance world. The Viewpoints allows a group of actors to function together spontaneously and intuitively to generate bold, theatrical work quickly. It develops flexibility, articulation, and strength in movement and makes ensemble playing really possible. 1 credit.
