Brenau

A professional training program in a liberal arts setting, Brenau University has the top-ranked theatre in Georgia, The Gainesville Theatre Alliance. We work with professional guest artists from all over the nation to provide our audiences with the best theatre experience and our students with the best theatre training. Four mainstage productions, including WonderQuest: a Theatre for Young Audiences, and 4-8 Discovery Series productions a year provide our majors with a wide variety of hands-on, feet-on-the-stage experiences.

The theatre major offers students a large variety of activities. This includes academic classroom trainging and valuable practical experience in all aspects of production. Brenau's program is part of the Gainesville Theatre Alliance, a professional theatre company that incorporates student, faculty, and community talent. Performances take place at the Hosch Theatre in Brenau's John S. Burd Center for the Performing Arts; at Pearce Auditorium on the Brenau campus; and at the Ed Cabell Theatre at Gainesville College. Laboratory productions are staged in Brenau's Black Box Theatre and at Gainesville College. Whatever your goals are in theatre, we can help you attain them.
