B.A. Theatre
Our Program
We offer a rigorous exploration of historic and contemporary theatre practice within a vibrant liberal arts tradition. Our curriculum includes applied studio courses in acting, directing, and technical production and design as well as course work in dramatic literature, theatre history, and theory. Each year the theatre major applies classroom and studio knowledge to a robust six-production season of contemporary and classic plays.
Breadth and Depth
The Bachelor of Arts degree allows you to gain a broad understanding of theatre art while honing your skills in a specific area of emphasis.
The Capstone Project
During the second semester of the junior year theatre majors propose a Senior Capstone Project. This portfolio-building project represents the culmination of the student’s training and serves as a bridge to graduate programs, professional theatre, or other job opportunities.
