It has been eye opening to learn how performances are not just about theaters, stages, actors, stories, etc, but it is actually our life itself.

Richard Schechner is a great teacher, I love the way this course was structured, it is a very relevant course to take since it is not only related to arts but to life itself, it was a fantastic experience for me. Thanks.

An wonderful journey and thanks to Mr. Schechner for the guidance. The course is really outstanding, specially in representing social, cultural and gender diversity, an well orchestrated performance itself.

The beginning of the journey. This course teaches you how to order ideas and concepts! Beautiful content and very useful for me as a professional dancer and choreographer. Thank you Mr. Richard Schechner!

A very well presented course that is engaging, informative and flexible without being too hard or too easy the questions that are asked concise and philosophically thought provoking at times. There aren't many performance/ film courses available to begin with so this being the few that exists is highly appreciated especially with the effort that was put into creating it.

The content was incredible, but independent studying does not work well for this course. I believe the discussions would have made a huge difference. I got bored of reading and thinking alone.

It was a rather engaging and effective way to learn about what people would think is "mundane".

I thoroughly enjoyed these studies. I learnt so many things to do with performances such as what is a performance, studying everyday life, play, theatre, festivals, social media, theories relating to rutuals and cave art and performances from thousands of years ago, ethcjings and paintings on cave walls and peformances. Globalization and what it has done for us today and what life was life before. Our changing circumstances due to globalization and how performance has kind of tagged along and as a consequnce is integrated and so are our lives.

This is a very thorough introduction to Performance Studies. The readings, lectures and videos included are both insightful and clear. The activities are well designed for developing critical thought about the subject. Very much recommended!

This course is extremely interesting although perhaps a bit expansive near the end. I plan to go through some of the material several times because I found the content so enjoyable. I am so happy I found it.
