Expanded Course Description
| This course will explore the burgeoning genre Middle Eastern American theatre. Middle Eastern Americans have been a growing population in the United States since the late 1800s when they began their largest migrations to North America. Comprised of Arab Americans, Iranian Americans, Jewish/Israeli Americans, Armenian Americans, and Turkish Americans (among many other ethno-religious groups), have contributed to American arts and letters in many different forms such as poetry, literature, film, and theatre. This course focuses on the history of the major Middle Eastern communities, the sub-genres for which they write and perform, and the prominent artists working in the theatre today. Students will engage with Middle Eastern American theory; read, watch, and analyze plays and performances; and participate in online discussions with several Middle Eastern American theatre makers. In addition, students will give an in-class presentation about a particular play or performance of their choosing, and/or write a final paper based on their research and oral presentation. |
