Take one step into the Theater program at Lafayette College, and you already will have a foot in the future.

Opportunities

With strong local connections and a global reach, Lafayette’s Theater Department offers students a range of opportunities that appeal to individual theater interests and foster professional and community-based learning experiences.
To enrich the theater education of our students, the Department regularly schedules workshops, lectures, and master classes on campus. Ping Chong and Company, Bread and Puppet Theater, and Flux Theater Ensemble have worked with Lafayette students during campus residencies. Funding from Lafayette’s IDEAL Center brought together theater students and Flux members in a production of Tartuffe that played on College Hill and Off-Broadway.
A short seventy miles to our east, New York City, one of the world’s great theater centers, plays a central role in the formal and informal pursuits of Department faculty and students. Field trips to see Broadway and Off-Broadway performances are a regular feature of Department courses, and NYC Lafayette offers classroom space and meeting areas for our faculty and students in lower Manhattan.
