    THR 327 | African American Theater Performance Department of Theatre, The University of Kansas Professor: Dr. Nicole Hodges Persley | Spring 2010 Office Hours: Tuesday & Thursday: 3:30 – 4:30 PM or by appointment GTA: Jeff List [email protected] Office: Murphy Hall, Room 229 Contact Phone (785) 864-2820 Email: [email protected] Class Blog: www.kuafamtheater2010.blogspot.com Course Description This course will introduce students to key plays and performances that have produced the African American Theatre repertoire from 1958 to the present. From A Raisin in the Sun to the Urban Theater Circuit, students will engage in a wide range of theater and performance texts that reflect expressions of African American life in performance. Broad themes of the course include but are not limited to the performance of black subjectivity; double consciousness; performing race; racial essentialism; color politics; cultural nationalism; racial stereotypes; civil rights; and social protest. Students are encouraged to attend performances of African American plays, spoken word events and performance art in Lawrence (or the surrounding area) for class participation credit. This course employs an inter-textual perspective that privileges texts for the stage as it engages African American Theatre as a site of performance that continues to strongly influence other theatrical genres of performance such as television, film, fine art and performance art. Goals: The goals of the course are to help students: 1) understand the key playwrights, actors and general history of African American Theater and performance of the time period discussed; 2) understand the specific social, cultural, political factors that produce a play; 3) critically and artistically articulate verbally and in writing, the genealogy of African American Theatre; 4) identify how African American Theatre shapes popular culture and influences and contributes to mainstream American Theatre.
