DRAM 2022 - Hip Hop Theatre (3)


This course examines the influence of Hip Hop music, dance, visual art, and philosophy on the content and character of contemporary American drama and culture.  Thus, Hip Hop Theatre is at the core of this exploration.  Primary considerations are identifying this “new” aesthetic; recognizing its origins and major players; and analyzing its convergence of art, culture, politics and community.  The origins and history of Hip Hop as well as its performance elements and cultural and political significance will be explored with the African American culture as a backdrop.
