Comment:
I will be honest, this was no easy class. Dr. Erickson expects you to help work for the plays for 3 hours and then you have to pay to watch it. He also had a big group project and the tests are very difficult. You have to put in work and study. He is a great guy and makes the class less boring, but if you are a commuter, this will be hard.

Dr. E is a really funny and genuinely nice guy! He is by far one of my favorite profs at SVSU. Class is usually notes off the powerpoint and it gets a little boring and redundant. The final creative project is fun if you make it that way and try. I would definitely take him again. Theater majors would love him.

Gave us a "study guide" for the mid-term, and NONE of what was on the study guide was on the exam. Was the hardest exam I have EVER taken. Goes too fast, gets off subject very easily.

Comment:
Homeboy was super silly. performances were the best part if youre into that kind of thing. 3 quizzes that were easy for the most part. no powerpoints or notes to copy, just pay attention during class. analysis papers were a cakewalk, just answer all the questins and its a hundo percent no doubt. this class can be a blast if you want it to be!

Comment:
I had Erickson for Theater History, and it was potentially one of my favorite classes. I just needed a 300 level class and had some interest in Theater, his teaching structure is quite easy to follow and the outside of classroom work isn't bad at all! Great PROF! Wish he was teaching more classes I needed.

I'm a Comm. major who needed a theatre credit and a friend recommended Dr. Erickson. I hated the assignments, but it wasn't the end of the world, and Dr. E is a really great guy. I would recommend him, even if you're shy.

Comment:
this class is really great...if you're a theater major. the final group project is a joke. it doesn't really matter how hard you work because every one gets the same grade. pretty much everyone in the class got a 90, even the ones that were bad. not mentioned, he doesn't teach you anything about acting but will grade you down if your acting is bad.

Real good professor, easy assignments. Don't bother buying the book, the exams are from his lectures. Otherwise cool guy, easygoing, kept class light and fun. Often bursts into random movie/play characters.
