Abstract
The exercise aims to use a taxonomy of performance, as theorized by Richard Schechner in his essay “Drama, Script, Theatre, and Performance,” to think analytically about what performance is. (Part of the goal is to “make strange” what students, most often, think they already know by giving then tools to better define and identify the spectrum of what is termed “performance.”) Students will articulate the porously bounded areas of drama, script, theatre, and performance, teasing apart and developing a definition of what defines theatre as theatre in relation to how they define performance. Through this, students will develop an analytic frame that can be applied to viewing and examining performance. Students will also be able to create performances with an awareness of these areas, making deliberate choices that take into consideration the boundaries and seams of performance.
