Theatre Major
The theatre major is a comprehensive major providing training in acting, directing, theatre design/technology, and theatre history/dramaturgy. In addition to studio and classroom instruction, students will gain practical experience through working on department productions and serving on production teams. The program places a special emphasis upon the use of drama in worship and Christian ministry.
While many theatre majors anticipate a career in theatre, other students may want to combine the theatre major with a specific minor to help prepare them for the wide diversity of theatre-related professions including Christian Education, Youth Ministry, Arts Management, Arts Law, and Arts Education. With the assistance of a faculty advisor, theatre majors are encouraged to consider taking a minor in such fields of study as Art, English, Management, Christian Education, or Psychology. The program culminates in a Senior Theatre Project designed to feature the student's level of expertise and assist the student in preparation for graduate school or the selected area for employment or ministry.
Specific academic program information may be found in the Cedarville University Catalog.
