The Theatre Studies Certificate provides a condensed, adaptable program for students to delve into theatre and performance, emphasizing Community Engaged Learning (CEL).
This multidisciplinary liberal arts program combines classroom lectures, seminars, and collaborative courses with professional theatre companies. Participants benefit from small class sizes, hands-on workshops, and immersive field trips. Coursework examines contemporary social and cultural themes in theatre, such as representations of gender, sexuality, race, and ethnicity. Practical studio classes, including partnerships with Canada's Stratford Festival and the second-year Fall Production course, appeal to aspiring theatre professionals, future drama educators, and those considering advanced studies in performance. A standout feature is the Destination Theatre capstone, where students travel to London or New York for a two-week intensive featuring performances, expert-led workshops, theatrical walking tours, and other enriching experiences.
