| The AQ Theatre Program Difference |
- A “Senior Independent Project” in your particular emphasis, including one-on-one contact with faculty.
|
- Our performance curriculum includes a four-show season covering contemporary, classical, children’s and musical theatre pieces, enhanced by a strong relationship with Community Circle Theatre.
|
- Performance and direction are showcased in the Performing Arts Center and within its Black Box Theatre.
|
- Acting, directing and other studio courses average less than 10 students per class. An open environment exists for non-majors to audition and participate in the
theatre arts.
