Our program . . .
CSB/SJU have one of the finest undergraduate theater programs in the Upper Midwest. The theater department brings together a dedicated faculty with strong ties to professional theater companies, a course of study that emphasizes the interrelated nature of all facets of dramatic production and an annual program of both faculty-directed and student-directed plays.
In classes as well as productions, theater students at CSB/SJU learn by doing. Resident and visiting faculty members continually bring new ideas, techniques and challenges to students.
Program highlights
- The theater faculty includes specialists in all major areas of theater, and all directors of productions are full-time faculty members.
- Collaboration with the CSB/SJU Fine Arts Programming exposes our students to theater professionals and great productions from all over the country.
- The department stages four major productions each year.
Overview of Program
The theater major includes:
- Classes in acting, theater history, dramatic literature, costuming and technical theater.
- The opportunity to specialize in one of the areas that most interests you.
- Four, full-length productions every year.
