THR 124 - Acting II

3 Credit Hours

Acting II is a continuation of the principles learned in Acting I and focused on preparing roles from specific dramatic texts. Students will combine acting theory and practice to deepen their knowledge and understanding of the methods used in approaching monologues and scenes. Students will build upon their portfolios as well as re-enforce audition techniques. They will enhance the basic skills required for working with modern dramatic texts along with at least one text featuring heightened poetic language. Through course activities, students will continue to practice and improve acting skills and techniques, analyze their own work and the work of their peers, and learn new subject-specific vocabulary.

Prerequisite(s): THR 122 or permission of the instructor.
