BA in Theatre

The BA program in theatre is a broad-based program of theatre practice and study for the student seeking a foundational theatre education rather than specializing in a single track. The BA is an ideal fit for those who want to explore multiple disciplines within the theatre or double-major outside of the department. It also serves as the core of studies for a student who wishes to pursue further theatre training in one of the BFA areas of concentration.
