Our theatre courses teaches creative problem-solving skills through practical, hands-on experience. Enhancing students' appreciation of theatre as a literary and performing art, whether they're participating in a stage production or attending one, is our goal.
On stage, students are able to use their acting, and dance skills to explore their ability to entertain and communicate a scripted work. In class, students are asked on a regular basis to stand before the class and communicate a single message. The skill base takes the form of improvisational games and skits, scripted works and original works.Theatre teaches students to think through self-expression and allows exploration of their artistic voice. They gain the confidence and skills to follow their passion wherever it may take them, including, of course, the stage. Our theatre programs are open to all students, regardless of experience level, and offer courses in acting, design, directing, and public speaking.
