1 DRAM 120: Play Analysis Overview Course Objectives Texts Course Requirements Grading Academic Policies Lessons OVERVIEW DRAM 120: Play Analysis Development of the skill to analyze plays for academic and production purposes through the intensive study of representative plays. DRAM 120 is the first course in the major and the minor in dramatic art. (From the UNC Chapel Hill Undergraduate Bulletin) This course is designed to hone your skill in understanding how plays work essential knowledge for theatre practitioners, but illuminating for any spectator or reader of drama. The ultimate goal is not to master any individual play, but to develop the capacity to look at any play and get to know it on its own terms before bringing the power of interpretation to take the script from page to stage. Plays, after all, are meant to be performed and not just read. Unlike the survey courses DRAM 115 and DRAM 116, where you may read and discuss a play a week, in this course we will study intensely five classics of the Western dramatic canon Oedipus Rex, Hamlet, The Glass Menagerie, The Cherry Orchard, and The Importance of Being Earnest using these texts to help us peer more deeply into the principles of dramatic storytelling. Then, you will choose one of three modern plays and apply the

2 skills you have learned to an individual project that involves both critical analysis and creative interpretation. COURSE OBJECTIVES This course is designed to enable you to do the following: deepen your comprehension and satisfaction when reading a play discover the patterns common to most, if not all, dramatic storytelling apply an analytical framework to plays sharpen your ability to write both personally and academically about drama creatively interpret a play through the role of actor, director, designer, or playwright better appreciate and enjoy the live drama that thrives in your hometown or elsewhere. TEXTS See course description for the most up to date list of materials. COURSE REQUIREMENTS Your responsibilities in this course include the following: Complete each lesson s reading assignment early so that you are prepared to join class discussion. Contribute to class discussion on the discussion forum. Submit written assignments by the last day of the lesson. Complete a semester project that includes a creative component and an analytical paper. Complete a midterm exam and a final exam. All due dates are listed in the Schedule in the navigation bar at left. The course follows the UNC Chapel Hill academic calendar. All times (for deadlines) are Eastern Time. If you are in a different time zone, plan accordingly. It is essential that you adhere to the Schedule. Mark the dates in your personal calendar. Establish a plan for reading, study, discussion, and writing that enables you to meet the deadlines. Written Assignments The assignments in this course go beyond simple regurgitation of information studied. Analytical tools will be introduced, and you ll be asked to apply them to a play under consideration or, sometimes, to life more generally. It is hoped that these activities will engage your interest and bring a sense of relevance and deeper understanding of the subject of play analysis. It is important, though, that you do the work on time and in sequence, since the assignments generally build on one another. You will complete response pages and analysis exercises for Oedipus Rex, Hamlet, The Glass Menagerie, The Cherry Orchard, and The Importance of Being Earnest. Your assignments will be described in detail in the lessons. Each successive play will ask you to integrate new analytical tools. By the time you read your semester project play, you will have under your belt a systematic and repeatable process of analyzing plays. I strongly recommend that you keep hard copies of all your written assignments in a three ring binder. As the

3 semester goes on, you will accumulate valuable study and reference material for successive assignments and your exams. Having this information printed and organized will make it more convenient to access. Your binder will not be submitted for grading it is for your own use as a study tool. Late work: Assignments submitted after the due date will be penalized up to one letter grade per day (24 hour period) that they are late. Class Discussion Since this is an online class, we don t have a chance to meet face to face each week. Instead, we have the forums, which act as our venue for communal learning. Unlike a classroom, which is often dominated by an instructor s presence, the online discussion forum is your place to respond to the course material and to guide the dialogue. Each week, questions revolving around certain discussion points are provided. It is expected that you will, at a minimum: respond at least once to each discussion point respond at least once to another person s response to that discussion point. Beyond that, you are free to contribute as you please. The discussion forum offers you the opportunity of expanding the understanding of the whole class by sharing your own knowledge and perspectives on the subject. Your active participation makes the experience better for everyone. It is imperative that everyone in the class post responses that are respectful in tone and generally focused on the subject at hand. Having said that, tangential comments are not entirely discouraged. Your discussion forum posts need not be formal essays a conversational tone encourages a free flow of ideas. You do not need to start your own thread. If someone has started a thread that is similar in content, you may go ahead and add to theirs, putting your idea in the context of theirs. If you have a new topic or if a related thread is getting too large (over posts), then by all means start a new one. Your discussion forum grade is akin to a participation grade that you would get in a classroom course. You ll be graded both on the quality and consistency of your participation in the discussion forum. Your postings do not, however, need to be lengthy. In fact, it s better to get to the point. Generally, you will not need to exceed a paragraph or two. Sometimes, a well crafted sentence or two communicates an idea best. Semester Project In the final five lessons of the course, our focus will switch away from acquiring analytical skills toward putting those skills to work on a project play. You will choose one play (from two options) for your semester project. First, you will respond to and analyze the play. Then, you will play the part of theatre practitioner (actor, director, playwright, or designer) and engage in a unique creative interpretation, which you will present to the class (as a video, website, photo gallery, or Powerpoint presentation). Complete information on the project is provided in Lesson 11, and I suggest you jump ahead and look at Lesson 11 soon and plan ahead. Midterm Exam and Final Exam The exams will test your understanding of the plays you ve read, analytical terms and concepts, plus other material from lectures notes and discussions. They will also test your ability to apply that understanding.

4 The midterm will consist of ten short answer questions (for 50 percent of the midterm grade) and an analysis of a short scene (for the remaining 50 percent). The short answer questions will require an integrated understanding of the material we ve covered, and the analysis section will require you to use the techniques you ve learned on a scene we have not yet encountered. The final exam is not cumulative; it covers material and analytical tools learned after the midterm. It will be similar in structure (50 percent short answer; 50 percent scene analysis). Both exams will be open book. It will be especially helpful in preparing for the exam to assemble your three ring binder with all of your written assignments and any other notes up to that point in the course. GRADING Your overall grade for the course is based on the following components: written assignments: 30 percent class discussion: 10 percent semester project: 25 percent midterm exam: 15 percent final exam: 20 percent Extra Credit You are encouraged to see a live theater production this semester. If you are able to do so, and write a satisfactory one page response, you ll add 1 percentage point to your final grade. Please also post a 25 to 50 word blurb from your response on our discussion forum (just start a new thread with a subject line that indicates the name of the play so your classmates know what it s about). I will allow you to earn extra credit points for up to three different live productions. At UNC Chapel Hill, we are privileged to have regular and affordable access to a professional regional theater company right on our campus, namely, Playmakers Repertory Company. Check current offerings or call the box office at Shows generally run Tuesday through Saturday at 8 pm, and Sunday at 2 pm, at the Paul Green Theatre. Student tickets are $10.
