This course examines a selection of Canadian dramatic works, focusing particularly on post-1967 plays. The plays are springboards for discussion of (a) themes, topics, styles, characters, language, and genres; (b) the historical context within which the play was originally produced; and (c) the relevant critical lenses through which a work may be considered. We will immerse ourselves in the texts and traces of Canadian drama via the writings available to us and equip ourselves with the research skills and critical tools necessary for current and further discussions in Canadian drama.
