Description
Reader's theatre is a unique and innovative form of group performance argument. Reader's theatre allows the performers to research craft and prepare a performance that focuses on a central theme. Emphasis is placed on how blocking, staging and interpretation of literature and other forms of scholarly research are able to flush out the tenets of the proposed argument. Utilizing various forms of published literature and research, the following reader's theatre attempts to explore the social, cultural and personal challenges that university professors encounter in the structured world of academia. The performance will clearly define academia and why students should be aware of the challenges that academia presents in their professors' lives.
