London is unique in the range and variety of the drama it offers from revivals of the classics in contemporary productions to new plays, fringe theatre and international touring productions. The aim of this friendly and informal course is to provide committed theatre-goers with an opportunity for critical appraisal of selected plays in performance. To complement the academic studies theatre professionals involved in the selected plays will be invited to share their practical experience with the group. The course is held in central London and taught by Peter Storfer, Senior Lecturer, and Margaret Cottier, Emeritus Senior Lecturer. You are welcome to enrol for both or either week of the school. Plays can be from any era of theatre and can be in production in London’s National, West End or fringe venues. Although the lively international nature of the class is one of its strengths, all class members are expected to have a strong working knowledge of English. Accommodation in a University of London Hall of residence is also offered at very reasonable rates for participants.
