Theatre

Welcome to the Theatre program. Our mission is to offer students programs of recognizable excellence, to promote drama and theatre as civilizing agents within society, and to address the emphasis of dramatic and theatrical styles, forms, and structures as they emerge as artistic responses to the changing world. Students in the NC Theatre program study acting, stage movement, stagecraft, and theatre history.
