Studies basic techniques of unarmed and armed combat and employs these techniques to choreograph exciting fight sequences that are safe for actor combatants to perform and in line with the storytelling of the play. Analyzes the value of specific targeting and strategies to control time and space in a way that maximizes onstage storytelling, as well as how actors can participate in their own safety and the safety of their scene partners. Makes connections to the work done in class with the overarching principles of acting and storytelling. Offers students an opportunity to design, develop, notate, and film their own fight scenes. May culminate in a public sharing.
