The academic courses and productions at the Harper Joy Theater provide students with rigorous training in the practical skills, historical context, and cultural background of the dramatic arts. The skills they acquire will allow them to succeed in many diverse areas of theater and dance. All classes without stated prerequisite or an indicated level of difficulty are recommended to any student, regardless of class standing. All Whitman students are welcome to audition for departmental productions, participate on backstage crews, and work in the shops or box office.

In addition to our curricular and production offerings, we invite professional playwrights, designers, choreographers, directors, and performers to work with our students as part of our Guest Artist Program. This program is made possible through a generous endowment that allows working professionals to visit Whitman and share their expertise, experience, and talent with our students.

An education from Whitman College is special. As a small residential liberal arts college in Walla Walla, Washington, Whitman is rooted in the traditional liberal arts values like critical thought and academic rigor. But at our foundation is also a belief in the value of community and the power of relationships. Our graduates are scholars, but also explorers, advocates, and scientists. They climb mountains, travel to far-off corners, and give voice to others. They care about the community and aim to become citizens of the world.
