The theatre arts program offers courses for the general education of all students, as
well as professional training for those wishing to major in theatre arts. Using the
unique teaching facilities of the College Theatre (a performance plant housing an open
stage with a split-revolve-lift in a flexible auditorium) and an intimate “black box”
theatre, the program offers courses in all areas of theatrical performance, musical
theatre, technical theatre, direction, and design. A student wishing to major in theatre
arts may elect the disciplinary major below or the interdisciplinary major in musical
theatre.
Upon completion of the theatre major, students will be able to
