The Acting Program At...

  Our department offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre and Performance Studies with concentrations in Acting, Performance, Design/Technology, and Musical Theatre as well as a new curriculum in Dance. Fully accredited by the National Association of Schools of Theatre, our major in Theatre and Performance Studies is complemented by professional internships, special topics courses, individualized directed studies supervised by faculty mentors, workshops conducted by guest artists and scholars, and exciting international opportunities like our annual Summer Study Abroad in Ireland: Acting in Irish Drama in partnership with the Gaiety School of Acting in Dublin, Ireland. KSU theatre and performance studies students are involved in all aspects of production during the academic year, gaining practical performance experience by working on challenging and varied material.

We are especially proud of our faculty scholar-artists and all that they bring to the classroom and the rehearsal stage. All of us are committed to a program that aspires to offer the intellectual depth and breadth of the best liberal arts education along with the work ethic and commitment to professionalism typical of a conservatory program. We seek to cultivate emerging scholar-artists who may seek employment in diverse fields after graduation as well as those who may pursue graduate studies or careers in professional theatre.

All the theatre faculty welcome you to KSU and invite you to attend our performances at the Stillwell or Studio Theaters and to consider joining us in the Department of Theatre and Performance Studies at Kennesaw State University.
