Following an audition required of all students in this major, immerse yourself in the art and business of theatre, gaining critical industry knowledge and personal connections along the way to fast-track your career.
Many of our majors have gone on to graduate schools and to successful careers in the entertainment industry, including live theatre, film, and television.
But majors also develop a large number of highly valuable skills that make them valuable employees for any job. Collaboration, creative problem solving, and interpersonal communication skills learned in theatre have helped students forge careers in business, law, advertising, education and management.
A mini version of our major! Refine and improve your skills in the key components of theatrical practice (acting, directing, stagecraft, design, history, and analysis). Three of the required 18 credit hours are earned by working on productions.
To enroll, contact Marly Wooster. No audition is necessary.
Our dance minor is flexible, with options for those just beginning a journey in dance and those with significant dance experience.
To enroll, contact Ashley Goos. No audition is necessary.
If you are interested in learning some extra skills needed as a performer in musical theatre, opera, cabaret performance and musical revue, you might consider this minor. Please note that admission is by audition only.
For those who might be interested in running a theatre company, marketing, audience development, or business management, consider a minor in Arts Management, available through the College of Creative Arts and the Farmer School of Business.
To enroll, contact Todd Stuart in the College of Creative Arts.
