England: London. Fall (alternate years: 2008, 2010)
The Theater Foreign Study Program offers students the opportunity to combine
historical study and professional practice in Theater at the London Academy of
Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), one of the world’s great conservatories. The
program is a unique chance for students to develop their craft while taking
advantage of London’s incomparable theatrical tradition and vibrant cultural
scene.
All FSP students will be enrolled in the Theater 60, Classical
Performance I and Theater 61, Classical Performance II.
This typical British conservatoire experience is designed for students
interested in acting, directing, playwriting, design, stage management,
dramaturgy or criticism. These courses will be graded as credit/ no credit.
Theater 62: Plays in Performance-Perception and Analysis, taught by
the Dartmouth instructor, involves attending an average of two to three
productions per week and a weekly seminar.
In addition to the many London theaters, including the Royal Shakespeare
Company and National Theatre, students will have full access to London’s
cultural resources in music, dance, film, and museums. When practical, field
trips to historical sites of theatrical interest and backstage tours of theater
facilities will be scheduled.
