This intensive six-week course in Modern Drama focuses on representative works written by four dramatists: August Strindberg, David Mamet, Tennessee Williams, and Harold Pinter.
The approach is that of close reading: members of the class read and participate in group discussion of four plays: Strindberg’s Miss Julie, Mamet’s Glengarry Glen Ross, Williams’s Summer and Smoke, and Pinter’s The Room.
