HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Brussels Post, 1974-06-19, Page 10Ontario school teachers and students will have a chance to study drama at the .University of Waterloo this summer. Two 'unusual courses offered during the University's six-week summer session (July 2 - Aug, 10) are drama workshops in. theatre administration and in theatre performance, "These are unique in Ontario.." says. Prof. Mita Scott Hedges, "in that while we're not a professional acting school. we take a very practical approach to the subjects," The theatre performance workshop. which she gives, has to do with acting. -The other workshop, given by Prof. Paul. Roland, deals with production, direction,. stage management, as well as -front of the house'. fun ct ions (box office management, theatre management, promotion, etc.). Both prof6ssors are professionally experienced as actors, producers and directors; both are also academics and students of drama. "Just about anyone. interested in drama or the theatre could enjoy and benefit from the workshopS," says Prof. Hedges. "They arc not advanced courses and it is not necessary to have had any prior education in drama; they do involve a good deal of hard work, however.'' - She -says the workshops were designed for. high school or public school teachers interested in getting into the drama area in connection with their teaching jobs; they should also prove interesting to high school students interested in finding out what UW's drama program is all about...and picking up a course credit or two prior to enrolling full-time in September. • By enrolling in both workshops it is possible for a student to earn two full UW course credits in a single 'stimmeik Or, a student could get a single credit for either workshop, or even a half credit in each . . . half acting and half production. The drama workshops are one, of two. theatre-related activities on the UW campus this year; there will also be the annual Shakespeare Summer Institute.
