Overview

The program balances a broad liberal arts perspective with the specifics of professional training. The program examines theatre through aesthetic education and criticism, creative expressions, and diverse historical and socio-cultural perspectives.

What sets the program apart from others is:

The Performance Opportunities: SU Theatre creates live experiences that push beyond the preconceived limitations of theatre. Whether interested in performing, designing, or managing, our program provides students with comprehensive production opportunities. Students leave our program with portfolios full of work, evidenced by the success of our students and alumni in grad school acceptances and awards.
The Productions: Ranging from new work to classical drama, productions are produced with a contemporary, relevant lens that resonates with audiences both locally and nationally. Faculty and students create new, adventurous performances that challenge, engage, and enlighten performers and audiences alike. We elevate the voices of our diverse student body through productions that reflect a multiplicity of communities, identities, and perspectives.
The Faculty and Personal Instruction: the faculty has years of professional experience in theatre, film, and television. Students are connected with industry professionals through guest speakers, workshops, and internships. We keep our class sizes small to ensure that each student is a familiar face who receives individual attention in the classroom, rehearsal, design meetings, and advising setting.
