Education and innovation take the stage together

If you want theatre as the cornerstone of your undergrad experience, this academically rigorous, broad-based course of study is for you!

Connect fresh audiences to the power of theatre and re-invigorate seasoned participants with new works and exciting approaches to well-known plays.

Learn about theatrical theories, best practices, historical challenges, and the great artists and thinkers of yesterday who make today’s performances meaningful.

Classes range from acting to production and design courses. Combined with history and dramaturgical work, you’ll have a better understanding of human communication, culture and the place theatre has in the world.

Follow your own path

Combining general theatre studies with your focused area of interest will help you prepare for graduate school or jobs in theatre outreach, education, and audience development. Adding one of our interdisciplinary minors, like women and gender studies and arts administration, help you gain a better understanding of important topics in today’s world.

Our students intern around the country in preparation for their professional careers-careers that have included work with The Blue Man Group, Playwrights Horizons, the Utah Opera Festival and Walnut Street Theatre.

With more flexibility than the performance and production majors, theatre studies students take acting classes and perform, help manage the nuts-and-bolts of production, and publicize exciting new plays to the greater community, while digging deep into the stories that make theatre important. Careers in dramaturgy, literary management, casting, patron services, or education await the student who chooses theatre studies.
