The Department of Theatre is a vibrant community of students, staff, and faculty, guided by values of generosity, integrity, respect, and rigor. As a hub for creative practice research, we are dedicated to theatre and performance both as a living art and as an interdisciplinary system of inquiry. <br><br>Our bachelor degrees align collaborative theatre making (production, design, and performance) with academic study and practice-based research. We offer a broad experience in and a deep knowledge of theatreas an interdisciplinary art form. Our program aims to prepare students to generate and communicate knowledge through innovative and imaginative creative practice research, to collaborate generouslyand with integrity, to use the languageand practice of antiracist theatre, to enter professional contexts to create impactful, ethical, and socially responsible workthat advances social and racial justice, and to be informed citizens that grapple with the cultural, social, and ethical impacts theatre has on communities.
