50 Plays you must have read as a Theatre Student

Jun 19, 2007 20:50

This list is from the University of Kent Drama, Film, and Visual Arts webpage. Apparently I've been wasting my time reading Harry Potter when I should have been brushing up on my Anon. I wish we had a Dramatic Lit class at Humboldt. Those I've read (or seen, in the case of Doctor Faustus) are underlined.
I've got a long way to go.

and people don't believe me when I tell them Angels in America is a theatrical classic.

It's certainly significant... I mean, I don't know how they could argue otherwise - it won the Pulitzer.

what a list! I haven't read hardly any of those... but i must say that I really like "dream play" and I had to read "the cheviot the stag and the black, black oil" for my scotland studies last summer, and it's really cool! if you can, get your hands on the video/movie of/about the production of it that toured scotland in the 70s. it really enhances the experience of the play.

SO COOOOOOOOL! I hope you go to kent!

I think you'd like Aphra Behn a lot, she's really neat.
