S07
Dina Janis
In this advanced scene study class, students will immerse themselves in the life and plays of Anton Chekhov. Students will read selected plays in addition to biographies, period research materials, and critical reviews of various work and productions of his plays. Several film versions of material will also be viewed and discussed during the term. The bulk of expected class work will be in the form of extensive out-of-class rehearsal with scene partners. Students can expect approximately six hours of out-of-class rehearsal time per week.
