Theatre - B.S.

The Theatre major is designed for students eager to become better theatrical performers, producers and technicians who glorify God by delivering modern parables. Building on the theoretical strengths of the division's core classes, the Theatre major further develops students with practical skills and perspectives through their coursework in writing, performance and creative production, as well as a full university production schedule of plays and musicals.
