Students seeking a broad, well-rounded education in Theatre are perfect candidates for the SOU Theatre BA/BS Program. Learning in this department is a collaborative experience that espouses professional standards in the studio, in the classroom, and in its production experience.
Degree Roadmap
Theatre students working toward a BA/BS degree will be instructed in the foundations of script analysis and interpretation, performance, technology, and design through a sequential track of coursework. Students will receive hands-on experience in theatrical productions through comprehensive professional instruction and guidance.
Capstone
The Capstone project is designed collaboratively by the student and the student’s advisor and focuses on research, requires a written component, and should serve as a reflection of a student’s undergraduate experience in theatre. The project will be documented in a career-oriented final portfolio and submitted to the student’s advisor, and archived by the Theatre Office.
