Laurea in Arti - Teatro

The Bachelor of Arts Theatre program helps students sharpen their artistic skills and explore new talents while allowing them to pair Theatre with another major. The communication, collaboration, and leadership skills gained in Theatre prepare students for success in a wide range of industries.

Recent pairings with Theatre have included Communication Studies, English, History, Political Science, Marketing and Psychology. Dedicated and responsive faculty work with students in the BA Theatre program to coordinate tailored educational experiences to help them pursue their desired goals.

In this program, students become well-rounded artists by studying acting, technical theatre, design, history and directing. Theory meets practise as students apply their classroom knowledge to the various productions, activities and optional summer theatre programming beginning in their freshman year. Those involved in productions earn academic credit hours through our practicum courses.
