- develop a working methodology for performance as an actor;
- demonstrate a practical ability in technical areas of stagecraft and/or design;
- respond critically to performances and works of dramatic literature;
- exhibit an understanding of the role and methods of the theatrical director;
- participate in the production of works for public presentation;
- organize, rehearse and present a production as a principal creative artist;
