DEGREES OFFERED

Bachelor of Arts in Theatre


Theatre is a hands-on, transformative learning experience. Our program immerses students into the culture of theatre. By taking courses in acting, directing, technical production, design, playwriting, theatre history and dramatic literature, you’ll develop the skills needed to take on any part of the theatrical world. Our main stage and student productions give you the opportunity to show what you can do on stage through acting roles, stage management, design and technical positions, as well as writing and directing. At Scranton, we’re educating the next generation of theatre artists. Our students practice what they learn, getting hands-on experience in every facet of theatrical productions with professors and theatre professionals. Studying theatre fosters collaboration, encourages creative expression and gives students life-long skills that will help them in numerous professions.

Hook And Eye Invades The Flea
by Julie Musbach - April 15, 2019


LOOK OUT! Hook & Eye Theater is landing at The Flea with three outrageous new ideas to share. From a They/Them Generation riff on 1920s drag culture set against a Mae West play, to a tale of the MTA's wayward past and perhaps glorious future in the form of a subway ride, and an original play about a narcissistic soldier from the Gulf War in a play about identity, responsibility, and community. Hook and Eye Invades The Flea offers three unique visions for your pleasure. Each night a staged reading of our newest original work Echo & Narcissus and in-progress material from our inaugural Spoolers' Eliza Bent and Roger Q. Mason.
