FAS 110CL QEP Assignment Why Study Theatre?

PLEASE SEE UPLOAD FOR ASSIGNMENT AND RUBRICS INSTRUCTIONI AM IN NEED OF A LETTER 500 TO 1000 WORDS THE LETTER IS ABOUT WHY STUDY THEATER I WILL NEED THIS ASSIGNMENT BACK BY 12/2/2017 1

Instructions: Suppose that Saint Leo University was considering doing away with all theatre classes, even for non-English majors. (This is not really under consideration, thank goodness! This scenario is hypothetical.)

Your assignment is to write a letter to the President and Board of Trustees outlining the benefits of studying theatre, keeping our core values in mind. What have you learned about the theatre this term that could help you communicate the value of this ancient art form? How can you apply some of the skills of this craft to other areas of your life/career? How does participation in and patronage of the theatre reflect our core values? This is a persuasive piece, so make sure you support your claims with thoughtful details.

The paper must be:

  • Double-spaced

  • In 12-point font

  • Between 500 and 1000 words

While this is a letter, it should reflect standard essay form with consideration to purpose, question at issue, assumptions, etc. See the rubric on the next page for grading criteria (worth up to 100 points).

Submit this assignment to the Assignment box no later than Sunday 11:59 PM EST/EDT of Module 8. (This Assignment box may be linked to Turnitin.)

The drama is not dead but liveth, and contains the germs of better things.”

William Archer, About the Theatre
