Theatre in Asian countries holds a significant reputation for inheriting the legacies of ancient cultures stretching back thousands of years. In this course students will be introduced to the many complex forms of Asian theatre by focusing on several distinct world regions in Asia. In order to expand students' knowledge of the subject our major attention will be placed on Japanese, Chinese, and Indian theatre with a brief focus on Indonesian theatrical genres as well. The symbolic expressions lying behind dramatic performances, as well as mask and puppet theatres such as Japanese Noh and Bunraku and the Wayang Kulit shadow theatre of Java and Bali will expose students to various styles over the world that have similar and different features related within the cultural arts.
