Theatre

The Theatre Minor gives students the opportunity to develop communication and creative problem-solving skills and they learn the art and technique of communicating a play to an audience. Students will gain an understanding and appreciation of the various aspects of theatre production and their own artistic voice in a combination of classroom and laboratory environments. Within the minor, a student may focus on an area of particular interest (performing, directing, writing, etc.), but all students will become more proficient in collaboration, creative problem solving, interpretation, and self-awareness.
