This course structure strives to improve your appreciation and understanding of live theater. We will look at all aspects of theatrical art and various ways to evaluate shows which you attend. We will share experiences, glad or sad, with comedy, tragedy, melodrama and musicals. If you enjoy going to “another opening of another show,” this class may be for you.
