 The
philosophy of the Department is based on the belief that all theatre students
need a common base of information and skills on which to build their education
and develop their talents.Coursework in the class rooms and productions
should compliment each other, thus maximizing the educational experience.
All theatre majors build their college career on a 25credit hour core
of courses.These core courses includes Creativity and Performance,
Practicum, Stagecraft, Acting, Playscript Analysis & Interpretation, and History of the Theatre I & II. |
|
 Knowledge
gained in the class room is incorporated into the production experience
in several ways as students work as actors, designers, and technicians
during the mainstage season. The design of a production may reflect
periods studied; acting styles practiced in the class room will be used
on stage; and/or period movement and voice will be emphasized in a production.
In addition to the core curriculum, students may take 15 credit hours
in a chosen emphasis. |
