Overview

About the program

Rigorous course work of the Theatre program at University of South Carolina Aiken, coupled with practical application in production, prepares students to take the next step in their career, whether that be academic or professional.

A professionally active faculty, strong classes, internships, and an active production program all help to prepare students for the theatre of the 21st century. Various acting styles, design theories, and new technologies are studied in the class room and applied to the department’s productions.

This production-oriented program produces at least four shows a year: two of which are fully realized faculty-directed main stage productions, and two are student-driven laboratory productions. Additionally, students participate in an annual Cabaret Showcase.
