RATIONALE:

This  unit explores the potential relationship between art and society
within  the  Australian socio-political context.  Particular  emphasis
will  be  placed  on  the adaptation of models  developed  outside  of
Australian  theatre practice in order to explore their appropriateness
to  the  economic, social and political conditions prevalent  in  this
country.

SYNOPSIS:

Focussing  primarily  on the theories and methodologies  developed  by
Augusta Boal in Latin America, students will explore the relevance and
appropriateness  of Theatre of the Oppressed as a model  suitable  for
adaptation   by   Australian  communities  generally  and   Australian
university students in regional Australia in particular.

OBJECTIVES:

On successful completion of this unit students will have:

1. a detailed understanding of the principles of theatrical
   production in a particular area of theatrical practice;
   
2. a high standard achievement in the application of these
   principles, in both practical and written form;
   
3. a strong working knowledge of basic performance skills
   associated with this particular area.
