課程簡述 The Spring 2024 iteration of this course will focus on theatre and performance in the Chinese-speaking world. This course is taught entirely in English and no prior knowledge of Chinese is assumed.
This graduate seminar seeks to explore the diversity across the Chinese-speaking sites of mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore by reflecting on the most exciting developments on their dramatic stages from the early modern period to contemporary times. We will examine the interwoven relationship between state, politics, identity and performance, and in particular investigate how despite the state’s efforts to define artistic creativity the theatre has always defied the status quo and enacted its resistance performance. We will engage in close readings of critical texts that introduce the debates surrounding these tensions, theories on performance and cultural identities, on top of reading plays in translation and viewing them through DVDs. Theorists and dramatists we will be reading include: Samuel Beckett, Bertolt Brecht, Lao She, Gao Xingjian, Kuo Pao Kun, Stan Lai, Wang Chi-mei, and Danny Yung.
