This course provides a foundation for postgraduate theatre and performance research by examining the methods used in the study of theatre and performance. We will consider how criticism, theory, historiography, and other methods have been employed specifically for analysis of performance. We will also discuss professional issues around working in theatre and performance studies as a teacher, scholar, dramaturg or applied theatre practitioner.
