Abstrak

This study proposes a teaching model for liberal arts education utilizing site-specific theater and examines its implications. By exploring various theoretical backgrounds and practical examples related to place-specific theater, the course covers a variety of concepts and deepens students' knowledge of theater. Theoretical explorations are followed by practical activities that encourage creative and critical thinking and provide opportunities to exercise the theatrical imagination. Practical activities provide learners with important experiences that allow them to see everyday spaces in a new light and to extend theater to personal and social meanings. There are also opportunities for students to watch and critique the work of other learners and to reflect on their own work in order to consolidate their knowledge and experience and to acquire new questions. The whole process is an educational one that leads to embodied knowledge. This study argues that theater, especially place-specific theater, is suitable content for liberal arts education, promoting learners' creativity and critical thinking skills, and offering another model of practice.
