THEA 28 Dance Composition
An in-depth study of the principles of dance composition leading to choreographic projects. Students will receive training in both dance composition and criticism, developing the requisite tools for choreography while acquiring the vocabulary for sophisticated choreographic analysis. Reading and writing assignments on contemporary issues in dance will be the departure for students' theoretical and creative exploration. To this end the class will concentrate on individual student choreography. Students' class work will be performed in an informal showing at the conclusion of the term. Open to all classes.
