COMM 347: Practicum: Performance

This course is an advanced study of the craft of acting. It is a continuation of the work done in Acting 1 and 2. Students will have the opportunity to apply the skills they learned in their previous acting classes to a practical performance situation. They will spend a semester rehearsing a play and those rehearsals will culminate in a public performance. This course will give them the time to explore the process of creating a theatrical piece, and will ask them to create fully realized characters that go beyond the scope of one or two scenes.
