BA in Theatre and Film - Design (Hons) in Winnipeg Canada | The University of Winnipeg

Theatre designers craft the visual and auditory world of a stage production, shaping the audience's first and final impressions. Through physical structures and fabrics, set and costume designers bring characters' narratives to life with tangible elements. Lighting specialists highlight these forms using hues, textures, and strategic shadows, while sound experts deepen the production's mood. All collaborators unite to reinforce the play's narrative and create meaningful connections for theatregoers.

At UWinnipeg's design program, learners examine scripts, conduct research, and engage in creative dialogues with production teams. They transform concepts through sketches, renderings, and miniature 3D models, presenting their textual interpretations. For practical execution, students convert visions into technical drawings, costume designs, and lighting/sound plans to guide construction crews and technicians. With instructors actively involved in Winnipeg's theatre scene, students receive expert guidance and mentorship in a supportive academic environment.
