Taiwanese modern drama was originally introduced by overseas students from Mainland China and Japan during the Japanese Occupation Era. The plays being introduced were mostly melodramas. Later on, after Taiwan Restoration, the political theatre was the mainstream due to the policy of Anti-Communism and Anti-Russia National Movement. During the late 1970s, many experimental theatres emerged in order to counteract the forceful politically correct theatrical movement. Then, in the past two decades, a great amount of foreign texts were introduced and adapted, which becomes the mainstream of the contemporary Taiwanese modern drama, especially of the commercial theatres. This course aims to introduce the development of Taiwanese modern drama, its historical backgrounds and basic elements. Meanwhile some classical texts will also be introduced. Hopefully, students will gain much familiarity and love for Taiwanese modern drama.
