Our department features live performance as the site of interaction and
integration of all aspects of the discipline of theatre; all graduate
students participate in this culture. A lively interplay between programs
enriches the student experience beyond the scope of any one program.

Graduate students in all five areas interact with faculty scholars,
directors, designers, and dramaturges as well as visiting scholars,
professionals and distinguished guests from all areas of the discipline.
While we try to provide generous funding, we do encourage  all applicants
to pursue funding independently.


Each program is highly specialized and discipline-specific, and features a
distinct curriculum.
