COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Collective creation is the development of original theatrical work by an ensemble during the rehearsal process. This course studies twentieth-century theater groups that have made use of collective creation. The course focuses on an examination of the process and methods of collaboration. The course begins by examining early theater groups that dealt with extant texts, in the Mosc ow Art Theatre and the Berliner Ensemble. Then the course also examines Polish experimental theatre groups, including Jerzy Grotowski\rquote s Laboratory Theatre and the Gardzienice group. The course then turns to the Living Theatre, the Open Theatre, the Performance Group, the Wooster Group, the Theatre du Soliel, the San Francisco Mime Troupe, and the Bread and Puppet Theatre
