Omschrijving	The course examines the characteristics of theatre as an aesthetic and cultural medium and the way in which theatre forms have developed from the eighteenth to the twenty-first century. Theatre IB places the emphasis on the development from print into visual and networked cultures. Theatre as studied in this module encompasses stagings of dramatic texts, radio and television drama, performance art, and mediatised performances. Students will form an understanding of the development of dramatic styles and genres, with emphasis on the social, political, and economic contexts in which the performing arts are embedded. Combined with the historical overview, the course introduces students to key theoretical approaches to the study of theatre, from feminist criticism to cognitive studies, viewing the performance event as a result of a complex constellation of communication processes between theatre makers and audience communities.
