- Guides students through the process of analyzing and interpreting frozen texts (plays, poems, and ceremonial scripts), from first read-through to final interpreted rendering of the performed text.
- Interpreting for theatrical or otherwise scripted communication is markedly different from other forms of interpreting.
- The availability of a script, ample time to rehearse, and the possibility of feedback makes this a hybrid practice—part interpreting, part translation, and part performance.
- Offers students an opportunity to learn how to analyze scripts for both content and interpreting issues; how to solve production problems of logistics, placement, and lighting; and how to interpret a series of performances for the Deaf Community.
- This course is offered in conjunction with or in advance of a theatre department production or other performed text.
