EGH236   Contemporary Performance Practices   (20 credits)

Description

Under staff direction and supervision, students will work practically as members of an ensemble, and contribute creatively and imaginatively in designated roles to one or more aspects of workshopping, rehearsing, and creating a performance based on a given text or other material. The work will follow on in direct ways from that undertaken in 'Performance I', which was in part a preparation for this module. Students will negotiate individually with the tutor and the rest of the group the roles for which they take responsibility, take into account the needs of the whole group, the text/material, and the project being undertaken. The performance will normally have a public aspect.
