More about this course
  • British, Irish, and American drama of the twenty-first century has sought to push the boundaries of theatrical presentations in three ways: dramatic structure and stagecraft; thematic content that challenges assumptions about gender, race, ethnicity, class, historical memory, and politics; and more direct engagement with the audience as an actual part of the performance. In this course, we examine at least a dozen of these game-changing plays and, when possible, view some of them. Authors may include Jez Butterworth, Richard Greenberg, Tom Stoppard, Martin McDonagh, Yasmina Reza, Lynn Nottage, Inua Ellams, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Tim Crouch, Peter Morgan, Natasha Gordon, Mike Bartlett, Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, Nick Stafford, or Lucy Kirkwood.
