Digging a Ditch with Undergraduates: a Museum Theatre Experience

Pages 83-93 | Published online: 19 Nov 2015
 

Abstract

This article documents a museum theatre project that involved undergraduates as creators and performers of a play for elementary students. Five themes emerged from the project: three relate specifically to museum theatre settings, while two identify areas for further investigation of any student-devised production. The article ends by offering suggestions for involving undergraduates in the development of museum theatre.
