Dramatic Theater Arts M.F.A.
The MFA program will be dedicated to nurturing individuals who aspire to become well rounded, employable theater artists. Working within a supportive and creative environment, the MFA program will challenge our students, through classroom study and the practical application of learned skills in the professional theater setting (The Kavinoky Theatre) for careers as working professionals or academics. Students would follow a rigorous curriculum that includes exploration of various genres and periods from the classical to the contemporary repertoire. Conservatory-style voice, speech, and movement courses will also be included. Students will be trained on the Kavinoky Stage (as well as back-stage) in professional productions, performing along side professional actors. The program will educate and create civically engaged Artists who would learn to support and engage with their local and global communities, embodying the mission “Never refuse to serve.”
