abstract: The purpose of this study was to explore current pedagogical approaches of undergraduate directing curricula in selected U.S. institutions of higher learning. Building on the work of Clifford Hamar and Anne Fliotsos, the thesis builds a foundation for further study of contemporary directing pedagogy. Fourteen course syllabi were collected voluntarily from members of The Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE) and served at the primary source material. They were interpreted and analyzed qualitatively for components that identified the methods and philosophies of the instructor and/or institution. From these syllabi, the researcher found 11 "skill categories" which cover all potential skills and bodies of information that, according to the data, a director should master. The categories are: (1) Script and Performance Analysis; (2) Directorial Techniques and Methods; (3) Production Practices; (4) Role and History of the Director; (5) Actor Training; (6) Technical Knowledge; (7) Personal Growth, Expression, and Vision; (8) Collaboration; (9) Communication; (10) Directorial Criticism; and (11) Storytelling. The categories fall on a spectrum ranging from practical based "knowledges" to skills based in individual resources and artistry, termed "abilities." Once these categories were established, the researcher examined two case study institutions: State University of New York at Buffalo (UB) and University of New Hampshire (UNH). The researcher collected public information concerning the guiding philosophies, financial profile, and curricula for both universities. From this data, combined with the 11 categories, the researcher found that the "personality" of the institution was reflected in the pedagogical approach of their respective directing courses. In the case of UB, a research-oriented institution had a production-focused directing course. UNH, with its Liberal Arts philosophy that promotes personal exploration, had a directing course that emphasized the artistic resources of the individual. Most importantly, this work creates a foundation from which future studies can be built. Broader and deeper analysis at a national level can now be approached with a framework of evaluation and analysis, leading ever closer to an understanding of the art and craft of directing. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.A. Theatre 2010

Therefore, the Morte e Vida Severina Dossier, present in the acquis of TUCA´s Center of Memory and Documentation (CDM-TUCA), was consulted and four interviews were conducted with the people who were involved in the process of the development of the play. The documents and interviews provided information on the period in which the construction of the play occurred, such as the corporate-military Brazilian dictatorship, the resistance to the dictatorship movement, the roll of the catholic church in the process, the Pontifícia Universidade Católica of São Paulo in that historical period, the construction of the theater, the students´ movement at PUCSP and, above all, the process that originated the project, development and presentation of the play Morte e Vida Severina, which was the basis of the conducted analysis. As a result, three analytical axes were defined: historical aspects, formative-educational and institutional. In conclusion, Morte e Vida Severina constituted a formative space for university students, a resistance movement against the authoritarian regime, and designed a historical moment and a political-ethical commitment of students and professionals towards the Brazilian reality / Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo sistematizar os dados sobre o processo de construção do projeto, montagem e apresentações da peça teatral Morte e Vida Severina (1965), que inaugura o TUCA, Teatro da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo. Para tanto, foi consultado o Dossiê Morte e Vida Severina, presente no acervo do Centro de Documentação e Memória do TUCA (CDM-TUCA) e foram feitas quatro entrevistas com pessoas que estiveram envolvidas na montagem da peça. Os documentos e as entrevistas forneceram informações sobre o período em que ocorreu a montagem da peça, a ditadura empresarial-militar brasileira, os movimentos de resistência à ditadura, o papel da Igreja Católica nesse processo, a Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo naquele momento histórico, a construção do teatro, o movimento estudantil na PUCSP e, sobretudo, o processo que deu origem ao projeto, montagem e apresentação de Morte e Vida Severina, que foram a base da análise realizada. Como resultado, foram definidos três eixos de análise: aspectos históricos, formativo-educacionais e institucionais. Concluiu-se que Morte e Vida Severina constituiu-se como espaço formativo para estudantes universitários, movimento de resistência ao regime de exceção, e objetivou um momento histórico e o compromisso ético-político de estudantes e profissionais com a realidade brasileira
