Theatre Arts
Theatre is a vital liberal art for the modern renaissance man or woman. Undergraduate study in theatre arts provides an artistic and intellectual foundation for career success in a number of professions as well as the professional theatre. Studying theatre arts gives superb training in cooperation, teamwork, and group advancement, so necessary these days in business, research, management, and other areas of employment. In the theatre, students work with everything they have: mind, body, and heart. Theatre puts them all together and makes them function as one.
Outside the classroom, the theatre program helps translate theory into action through performance. The Stetson dramatics production program focuses on undergraduates, giving them the opportunity to play major roles under the direction of a faculty member. In addition to honing performance skills such as acting, directing, voice and diction, movement, stage combat, and make-up, working in the theatre also develops technical skills like carpentry, painting, drafting, electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering, architecture, sewing, pattern drafting, interior design, and pyrotechnics.
