该系的积极制作计划促进了学生，教职员工和艺术家的合作项目。我们大型的表演设施是钻石剧院，这是一个拥有300个座位的推力剧院，位于佐尔纳艺术中心。我们在这一领域的工作核心是致力于制作主要由教师或客座艺术家执导的学生演员的作品。如有可能，高素质的学生可以在这个空间中指导或设计。除了我们自己的作品，我们还定期邀请其他专业表演者和乐团与我们合作并进行表演。我们还经营一个实验室剧院（佐尔纳的黑匣子剧院），用于学生和教师的实验。宝贵的动手经验和学生与教师之间建立的非常紧密的工作关系是戏剧系的独特之处。该部门与伯利恒的
The department's active production program promotes collaborative projects involving students, faculty, staff and guest artists. Our large performance facility is the Diamond Theater, a 300-seat thrust theatre housed in the Zoellner Arts Center. The core of our work in this space is dedicated to productions featuring primarily student actors directed by faculty or guest artists. When possible, a highly qualified student may direct or design in this space. In addition to our own productions, we regularly invite outside professional performers and ensembles to work with us and perform. We also operate a lab theatre (Zoellner's Black Box Theater) for student and faculty experimentation. The availability of valuable hands-on experience and the very close working relationships developed between students and faculty uniquely characterize the department of theatre. The department enjoys a special relationship with Bethlehem's professional theatre company, Touchstone Theatre. The Department of Theatre offers the Bachelor of Arts degree. Because we believe that undergraduate theatre education should be broad based with an emphasis on diversity of experience, students are encouraged to take a variety of courses outside the major. Many students complete double majors. Those with the talents and aspirations for a career in theatre have gone to graduate schools offering intense, pre-professional training. Other majors who have not pursued a theatrical career have gone from our program directly into careers in business, social services, sales. Theatre study is an excellent preparation for vocations in which self presentation is important, such as law. The problem solving, analytical and interpersonal skills gained from this discipline are applicable across a wide range of careers. An understanding and appreciation of the complex art of the theatre will enrich a lifetime.
