Theatre Courses for Everyone

Courses are available in both studio and lecture-style settings within the Theatre, Dance, and Film department. Courses vary in levels from beginner to advanced. Many of the courses within the department fulfill the Fine Arts core requirement for the College. Please see catalog for a complete listing.

Performances

To supplement the academic courses offered, the department also produces several performances throughout the year, for which all students are encouraged to audition. One need not be a major or minor to participate in the productions. A .5 credit is offered for those participating in any performance sponsored by the department. Opportunities both on and off stage are available, including but not limited to acting, stage management, and technical crew.

Mainstage Productions

These performances are directed by faculty as well as guest artists from New York, Boston, and Providence.

Independent Student Productions

Students who wish to produce a show/event may propose an Independent Student Project, in which they will be provided with consultants and some resources to aid in their project. Independent Student Projects must be approved by the Theatre, Dance, and Film faculty.
