Bachelor of Fine Arts - Theatre Arts

This program is for the student preparing for a career in the practice of theater as a performer, director, designer or technician. The B.F.A. degree (in performance or production) is intended to provide a small, specialized group of such students with a high level of competence. In their sophomore year, performance students wanting this more specialized course of theater studies must present an audition for the B.F.A. in performance. The faculty members base their decisions not only on the audition, but also on their collective experience with the student. Self-discipline, focus, initiative, and the ability to work well with peers count in equal measure to raw talent.
