Would retake: 5/5
Recommend: Yes
Good for non-majors? No
Teaching: Lecture, Full class discussion, Small group discussion
Reading (pages/week): Came in bursts; every new play we started required about 300 pages in under a week, but beyond that the readings every week were light (30-70).
Homework (hours/week): 4
Essays: 3

"Essay assignments were strange --- you don't really write "standard" academic essays and instead will use the essay format in strange ways (an essay, say, on imagining a play as a planet...)."
