Theatre Arts · University of Ghana
This course in advance directing focuses on the key elements of the collaborative art of theatre making, embracing both script based and non-script directing. The course content begins from the selection of script or what is to be performed. Students are taken through styles of production, the routine of organizing the production company and the production process as they scout for play scripts and performance ideas. Students are guided to discuss their motivations for choice of plays or performance ideas and undertake short exercises in scene study. Assessment is based on the direction of a thirty-minute performance.
