Contemporary Theatre has developed to take on many forms beyond naturalistic drama, including Dance Theatre, Multimedia Theatre, Physical Theatre, Site-Specific Theatre and more new forms are constantly emerging. These exciting forms of theatre are often created with the method called Devised Theatre which is a highly collaborative and experimental way of making theatre pieces. It is widely adopted by many contemporary theatre groups of different scales and styles all over the world. In Devised Theatre, all participants work together to create a performance, on a theme of their choice, by making use of various starting materials including photos, objects, songs, news articles, maps, letters, poems, creative writings, movements and even architectural space. In this course, students will become creative performers who will create, edit, design and perform a short piece of original theatre work.
