THE 467 - Deviants and Divas: Gender, Sexuality and Ethnicity in Contemporary Performance

3.00 credit hours
This advanced seminar investigates artists and artistic work that are frequently underrepresented in traditional American studies of theatre history and drama. Discussions examine texts, performances, theories and figures that pushed the boundaries of conventional performance, or challenged desirable or “acceptable” theatrical content and practice. In studying notable works from the 20th Century to the present, a particular focus is given to cultures or groups that have been marginalized because of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity.

Prerequisite(s): THE 359  or THE 361 .
