Overview

Key features

The Theatre Major is offered by Palm Beach Atlantic University. Admittance into B.F.A. programs are highly competitive.

For theatre, the B.F.A.’s focus is studio work (typically 2/3rds in program), rather than general liberal arts studies (1/3rd in program). Those who complete a B.F.A. in theatre, typically, are more prepared in their craft, and profession. The Wall Street Journal reports that those with a B.F.A. have “‘surprisingly high’ income levels, job prospects, and levels of job satisfaction.” PBA’s distinguishing factors include all-encompassing training in performance and production, emphasis on redemptive aspects of drama, the new Summer Repertory, and PBA Children’s Theatre; all making the B.F.A. in Theatre at PBA attractive to the serious theatre student who is also Christ-centered. Currently, PBA Theatre is producing seven shows per year, four main stages, two children’s theatre production, and one summer repertory production.
