Faculty

The department boasts a nationally known resident faculty with solid experience and an understanding of the demands of the professional theatre in its many manifestations. Guest artists often augment the resident faculty, so there is an ongoing professional presence which gives the student immediate experience of the ideas and practice in today's theatre. All of the faculty spend significant time outside of the classroom working personally with serious theatre students.
