Fine and Performing Arts - Theatre Arts Area

The Theatre Arts Program of the Fine Arts Department produces graduates with a well-rounded liberal arts education with a general Theatre Arts concentration. Graduates from this program are prepared for the work force, graduate schools, or pre-professional intensive training programs. The diversity of this field lends itself to careers not only in the obvious theatre realm but also in law, education, publishing, human resources, marketing and finance. A production involves studying language and literature, visual art, light and sound, costume, movement and voice, electronics and engineering. Among our graduates are alumni who have founded their own theatre companies; write for television and the stage; perform and direct; practice law; counsel; and much more.
