NOTE: The theatre faculty conducts a review of each BA Theatre Arts candidate’s progress at the end of their fourth semester during their sophomore year, to appraise commitment, abilities, growth, and academic progress.
All BA Theatre Arts students are required to audition for all mainstage productions, and accept the roles they are assigned. Mainstage productions are co-curricular, and participants are assigned a grade for credit through the Theatre Practicum course.
