DEGREES OFFERED

Bachelor of Arts in Visual and Performing Arts - Theatre


The Theatre and Dance Program is a one of a kind undergraduate experience and we hope that you will join us as audience members or as students. We offer a major in theatre and a minor in theatre or dance. The basic sequence of required courses is designed to provide the student with a theoretical/historical grounding in the art of the theatre and dance and the opportunity to put theories into practice in performance situations. But the program is so much more; we offer world-class opportunities for our students and patrons. Students have the chance to work at THEATREWORKS, a professional regional theatre company, travel to London and New York, meet some of the world's greatest theatre and dance practitioners during their visits for the Prologue Lecture Series and devise, direct and create in the Osborne Studio Theatre.
