"We want the class to be a gateway to the dramatic arts curriculum," Zigler says. "Lots of people don't have any experience even going to the theater."
One part of the class focuses on acting theory and another forces

"A lot of people are timid about it but we try to be up-front about the fact that there is an acting element," Zigler says. "People have to realize that they will have to get up on their feet and actually do it."
As the course's final project, students perform the ten-minute plays that class members wrote. Many performances take place in House common rooms and are attended by those outside the class.
