course introduces the rich and varied artistic heritage of East and South

literature; women and society; and the religious art and iconography of

Course Description: This course will focus on Suzuki actor training, a rigorous, physical method developed by Tadashi Suzuki. Drawing from the classical Japanese art forms, Noh and Kabuki, and other sources, Suzuki trains actors to connect to their "animal" energy and also to the ground. Through a series of exercises, actors develop physical strength and projection. The work will culminate in a performance based on a classical text.
