Introduction to Theater Practice

Two-time OBIE-winning instructor Young Jean Lee is a writer/producer on the upcoming FX television series CRY WOLF, has directed ten shows with her theater company, toured her work to over thirty cities around the world, and directed three short films that showed at festivals including Sundance and Locarno. In this class, students will be given space and support to research and experiment with areas of interest in theater and performance practice that are relatively new to them. Potential subjects for study include acting, directing, designing, choreographing, and writing. You can choose to focus a little on everything, investigate one new area, or try out a few different things. In-class work will include collaboration on projects to practice new skills. If interested, please email the instructor at yjl@stanford.edu with: 1) Your year of study; 2) Your major/prospective major; 3) Your previous theater and performance practice experience; 4) Potential area/s of interest for this class.
