About Theatre & Dance

The Department of Theatre and Dance educates students in the contemporary practice of theatre and dance through a liberal arts curriculum. Accredited by the National Association of Schools and Theatre, the Department provides a broad-based education that uniquely integrates theatre and dance to develop versatile theatre artists. There are two Bachelor of Arts degree programs: Theatre for those interested in performing, teaching, directing or other backstage work and Child Drama for those interested in creating theatre for the young people. Undergraduate students can also choose a minor in Theatre or Dance or a concentration in Dance. For the Graduate student, we offer an MA in Theatre and a Certificate of Graduate Study for those interested in professional development as teachers.
