London study abroad program |
Study Site
London, capital
of the United Kingdom and financial center of Europe, is a city of history
and diversity. In this city of millennial landmarks, sleek glass skyscrapers
tower alongside Wren's 17th Century facades and ancient Roman ruins. As
a dynamic world leader in the arts, London is especially famous for theatre.
A 500-year-old tradition, the British theatre includes two world famous
national repertory companies, a larger-than-Broadway West End theatre
scene, and a thriving experimental fringe.
Curriculum
The Theatre
in London Study Abroad Program consists of 6 weeks of theatre studies
experienced through performances of some of the finest theatre companies
in the world: the Royal Shakespeare Company, the National Theatre of Britain,
and others. Courses of study will include Dramatic Literature, Contemporary
Drama, and Shakespeare in Performance. Class time will consist of pre
and post theatre lectures and course related field trips.
