Overview

You’ll learn from professors globally acclaimed for their expertise in theatre across world cultures. The Pomona College’s Theatre department produces four major productions every year, and co-produces a dynamic season of student-generated performance, all in our state-of-the-art facility.

Studying theatre at Pomona equips you for a wide range of careers in the professional and/or academic theatre. It also equips you with valuable creative, analytical, and collaborative skills to tackle complex problems in the non-theatrical workplace.

Faculty & Teaching
