Department of Theater Arts
Students want to pursue theatre arts for many reasons: to train
for a variety of careers – in theatre, law, public relations, teaching,
arts management and promotion; or interest in developing practical
communication and leadership skills and applying them in a humanistic
context.
LMU Theater Art offers strong, comprehensive course
work and training for all theatre students. Specific training programs
in acting, directing, design, theatre technology, playwriting, history,
and criticism are oriented toward a theatre career. Small classes allow
for close working relationships with faculty. Students also can take
advantage of individual research and creative projects.
