ATS2284
Synopsis
In this unit you explore performance as a method of advocacy, mediation, and social/cultural transformation across the performing arts. Through a student-led, project-based, Community of Practice learning approach, you will learn key concepts that help you understand, analyse and creatively engage the relationship between performance and individual and collective agency, advocacy and activism. You will engage in both the study and making of performance as a tool for personal, institutional and community transformation.
