attend there for one Performance Paper only. For those who enjoy Opera that form may serve
as the matter for one Performance Paper.
If you live on the Wasatch Front there many venues for live theatre. These include:
UVU Department of Theatre Arts (Awarded best collegiate play, director, actress, costume and set
design in the nation by the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts/American College Theatre
Festival in 2013. So you are sitting on a goldmine and probably ought to attend a play here, if
possible, and see why.)
BYU Media Arts, U of U Theater Dept. Weber State Dept. of Theater and Dance, The Covey Center
for the Arts (Provo). Capitol Theater (SLC), Pioneer Theater Company (SLC), Sundance Summer
Theater, The Echo Theater (Provo), The Hale Center Theater (Orem and Salt Lake), The Scera
Theater (Orem), The Zion Theater Company (Utah Valley), The Castle (Provo), Pleasant Grove
Players (Pleasant Grove), and others. Local high schools also do performances of plays and musicals
but are generally not the level of quality of the others. You may attend these if you like however. For
those of you living outside this area please try to see the best quality work you can. There is a lot out
there to choose from.
One of the options for your individual culminating project requires the assignment to be video recorded, posted to a
web hosting service such as YouTube or Vimeo, and then the link to the video needs to be submitted via the
assignment. It is highly recommended that you register with a video Web hosting service and become
familiar with editing and uploading your video well ahead of the deadline. Use whatever video recording
technology you have readily available. The instructor is NOT expecting professional videography. Your best effort of
submitting a representative video of your assignment will be sufficient.
Communication
The best way to communicate with the instructor is through the Canvas Inbox. If you have a question
about the course, chances are that other students will have the same question. The instructor will
regularly monitor the Inbox and respond as quickly as feasible.
Additionally, there is a "Students Helping Students" discussion. This discussion is a place for
students to help each other through the course.
If you are having technical difficulties, please contact the Distance Education help line. The
instructor or teacher's aid cannot help you with technical issues:
