TH 307 Dialects for the Stage


This course introduces students to the methods of working on and learning a stage dialect. Students learn to analyze dialect speech patterns in terms of musicality, rhythm, resonance, intonation, phoenetic changes of vowels and consonants. We will work with Standard British, Cockney, Irish, American Southern, New York, French and German dialects. Additionally, students will build skills for teaching themselves new dialects, and learn one additional dialect of their own choosing.

Prerequisite: TH 203
