INTERNATIONAL FESTIVALS & TOURING

Theatrical experiences are more frequently crossing borders to not only share art around the world, but also to remain financially and culturally sustainable. This is the first course offered by the Theatre Program that looks at the vision and logistics of bringing theatre to places all over the world.

“The work of a director can be summed up in two very simple words. Why and How.” -- Peter Brook, On Directing

As theatre producers and managers, we’ll ask “Why and How” in a preliminary investigation into the missions and mechanics of producing international festivals and tours. We will consider our roles as members of the international performing arts community and our relationships to our artists, our audiences, and our international partners and colleagues.
