This course focuses on performance as a mode of research/investigation: how can engaging in a performance or practice (rather than simply reading about/observing it) illuminate in ways that may be otherwise inaccessible to the researcher? What knowledges does the doing of performance produce? Students in this class will be asked to develop research questions (in consultation with the instructor), design and engage in a performance project aimed at answering (or at least investigating) those questions, and then produce a final project (written or performed) that illustrates their research findings.
