Overview

Theatre And Performance offers Morehouse College students experiences in theatre arts through broad-based exposure to the various aspects of drama while contributing to the cultural enrichment of the Atlanta University Center and the community. It also provides the formal preparation necessary for advanced academic or professional study.

Students create a graduation portfolio that includes self-generated short performance work, complete with design, a short-filmed reel, and a monologue to go forward into graduate school or the industry.

African American cultural forms and best practice methodologies, including an introduction to international approaches to theatre, expose students to contemporary performance practice. Students also critically analyze social activism and politics and how these elements come together to shape and form bold and exciting artists and citizens.
