「西方戲劇」上課內容：
This course explores the relationship between the printed text and the play in performance. Students when reading the text will have to consider the text in relation to the potential performances in different physical and historical conditions. Students will learn to read a text with an awareness of how meaning is created in performance: through the organization of space and through set design, through the vocal and visual contribution of the actor, through the audience’s acceptance of specific historically conditioned theatrical conventions.
