The BA in Theatre is a wide-ranging, comprehensive degree program that offers students the opportunity to engage deeply in all the various components of creating, curating and critiquing performance. The discipline of theatre demands a multitude of skill sets and requires a strong sense of curiosity and discovery. The BA in Theatre allows for the broadest exploration of theatre as an aesthetic object, as work, as a vehicle of social justice, and a vital way of understanding and communicating in our communities. BA students bridge the gaps recognizing theatre's ability to connect the local and the regional to the national and the global. Built on a solid and broad-based liberal arts foundation, BA students have the flexibility to tailor their theatre education to their interests, whether it's acting, design, critical theory, technical theatre, dramaturgy, or stage management. All the while, BA students learn a host of communicable, transferable skills that apply broadly both inside and outside of the arts: from stages to classrooms, and boardrooms. All BA students share a common series of courses with all other majors, but with many more electives that allow them to chart their path in theatre. BA students are intrepid explorers forging their paths, creating opportunities, expanding their minds, and harnessing theatre to positively impact the world around them.
