Professor Letty was genuinely the best professor I have ever had. She's so helpful when it comes to this course and you can tell she actually cares about her students and loves her job. Never not wanted to go to class. The TA's are all super helpful as well. Just be prepared to read plays the day before and listen during lecture.

please please please take this class, from a fellow student. taking a different GE right now and I can't emphasize how good I had it in this class. I genuinely got an A+ in this class just by attending class and doing the readings, which are somewhat interesting even tho I'm not into theater!

Easily one of the best professors I have ever had at University. Caring, helpful, engaging, and lenient. All of the above. I for sure recommend this class for anyone looking for a GE to complete.

I actually took THTR188s. Letty was by far my favorite professor this quarter. She works with students to make sure their needs are met, is lenient within reason, and really creates an environment that gets her students to think. She made me see the content in a different way and made me want to come to class.

Letty was super sweet throughout the quarter and was super involved with her students. def go to lecture, she makes long topics concise and easy to understand. def at least skim through the plays assigned, but the exams are much easier if you know at least a few of them very well.
