MAJORING IN THEATER IN DANCE

Our curriculum combines artistic exploration and achievement with critical understanding in a variety of artistic techniques and topics. The major requirements meet the needs of students interested in graduate work and career opportunities in theater and dance related fields, while also providing significant skills and insights to those whose main area of interest may be in another subject.

Majors may also include relevant courses from other departments, the Five Colleges, and study-away programs into their studies. Our production season and upper-level courses give majors opportunities to create live performances alongside their peers, collaborating faculty, and guest artists.
