The School of Theater offers students an educational experience that is experimental, interdisciplinary, international, and diverse. Each unique program gives students the flexibility, skills, and critical thinking tools to navigate a rapidly changing field and to pursue their professional goals with maximum agency. The School of Theater's mission is to forge a community of citizen artists who are rigorously trained in their respective programs and who are able to work effectively and innovatively across a broad spectrum of artistic settings, media, and technologies.
