Introduction
This master's degree aims to encourage research in both the theoretical and practical areas of theater and performing arts based on new contemporary theories and practices, as well as promoting the exchange of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary artistic experiences of artistic production.
Graduates of the Master's in Theater and Performing Arts will obtain a plural training that will allow them to act as artists and professionals in performing disciplines as well as consolidate themselves as researchers of the same.
In the general training area, the student will internalize the theoretical contributions necessary for the deepening of their study: performance theory and performance theater. The theoretical support of the workshops will be philosophy, in its most contemporary lines, and the study of culture and art in the last half-century and today will lay a foundation for understanding theater and the arts with which it interacts, from an essential framework to develop as artists and researchers.
In the specific training area, the subjects will be aimed at providing specialized professional training, focusing on the implication of critical reflection in creative processes as immanent instances of artistic practice. Thus, they will study and reflect on problematic nuclei that have to do with different aspects of theater and performing arts: theatricality and its strong link with performativity, the relationships between performativity and the arts of movement, the importance of corporeality, and the nexus of theatricality and performativity with the technological space in video performance and digital art.
