Where performance and scholarship share the bill

The Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Performance Studies provides students with a comprehensive foundation in theory, history, and practice of theatre and performance. The program is designed to foster artistic expression, performance, critical and cultural analysis, and professional preparation for a wide range of careers in the theatre and performing arts and other related fields. Through a scaffolded curriculum, students explore the rich cultural history of theatre and performance studies by developing practical skills in performance, technical production, and script analysis. With emphasis on personal growth and career readiness, students are equipped to navigate both traditional and emerging opportunities in theatre, performing arts, and beyond.
