Welcome to DRA 313: Dramaturgy! “The role of the artist is to ask questions, not answer them” – Chekhov. This class will offer units exploring new play dramaturgy, production dramaturgy, and literary management. Production Dramaturgs are the editors of the theatre world. This course involves in-depth research into the historical period, theatre styles and key issues connected to the semester theatre production. The dramaturgy team in these classes would not only research these issues, but would learn how to effectively communicate them to the creative team. They will also learn strategies in new play development and the role of a literary manager.
