Theatre Arts Degree

Acting and Directing Concentration

The Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Art consists of 50 semester hours with an Acting or Directing emphasis.

ACTING CONCENTRATION
"Beyond that road lies a …" This eternal question is pondered by many in the profession of acting. This course of study leads you down a difficult and often laborious road. In order to better prepare you for the professional world of acting, we work with you to provide you with the tools of the craft and also with the ability to market yourself in this very competitive field. In addition to course work. We encourage and facilitate summer employment with professional companies throughout the nation. We achieve this through our continuing affiliation with the Southeastern Theatre Conference, which will provide you with an opportunity to audition for professional companies hiring for their summer and regular seasons.


DIRECTING CONCENTRATION
This is one of the most demanding and challenging areas of theatre! You guide the actors, designers, technicians and the audience through your interpretation of the playwright's world of the script. You will be responsible for developing a vision for the script and unifying all of other artists working with you. We provide you with instruction to complete your visions! You will be working not only with the faculty but also with the other students in the program to create solid, imaginative and entertaining projects culminating in the direction of your own production (or two) during your junior and senior years.
