Overview

The Theatre program at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Theatre (NAST), a distinction currently held by fewer than 200 Theatre training programs across the nation.

Key Features

With the program meeting the rigorous standards of NAST, you can be assured of receiving a high-quality foundation for a successful post-graduate career in the arts while still enjoying a personalized training experience.

From the very first semester of your time in the Theatre concentration, you will be immersed in the world of the stage. Unlike other academic programs where you may have to wait a year or two to begin the real core of your major training, in Theatre, you get started right away.

Programme Structure

What you'll learn:

Each semester, you will take hands-on courses in a variety of areas, including performance, technology, and design.

Through this structure, you will be given an opportunity to explore the full range of creative possibilities in Theatre before choosing advanced courses in your area of specialization, whether that’s performing, designing or directing.

These studio courses will be paired with courses in script analysis and Theatre History to ensure that you have the intellectual tools you need to create insightful and thought-provoking work.
