Overview

Key Facts

The Theatre, Theatre Education (K-12) program of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte provides a student-focused liberal arts education that trains theatre artists, scholars and teachers to investigate current best practices and emerging entrepreneurial methods in professional theatre.

Led by a faculty of nationally recognized theatre artists and scholars, the curriculum promotes creativity, inquisitiveness, critical thinking, communication skills (oral and written), and cultural competency through classroom experience, individual and collaborative study, and actualized stage productions. Students learn to participate in current critical discourse while engaging with the theory, history, and material conditions of performance; the program thus creates a rigorous intellectual environment firmly rooted in the theatrical art form.

Theatre majors develop a working knowledge of the art form by taking four semesters of core curriculum courses followed by an additional four semesters of study in one of the following concentrations: Performance; Design/Tech; Directing, Devising and Dramatic Writing (3-D); Applied Theatre; or Theatre Education (with the goal of attaining a North Carolina teaching license). All majors take a culminating 3-credit hour senior seminar during the final year.
