Theatre and Ethical Choice Web Links

The following links will either be directly referred to in class or are relevant to the time periods we're running through. Click around. Most have interesting images.

And if you run into any terrific links while browsing, let me know. If you're using web links as sources for your papers (be selective please, a paper written entirely off of the web will not be well received), make sure to go to the links below about reviewing and citing online sources. Just because it's published (on the net or anywhere) doesn't necessarily make it so!

 

One of the methods being used by contemporary theatre to get messages across - inyerface-theatre.com

Not in My Name - at the Living Theatre website. You might want to poke around this site a bit, just so you know a little bit about this out-there theatre company.

Harvard's Moral Sense Test - don't take this yet, because they only want you taking it once. We'll talk about it later in the semester.

Here's the link for our own library page. All the resources most useful for our class. Compiled by Tom Gilson.
