Performance Opportunities
Along with our mainstage productions, we offer many other performance opportunities including scenes for the Directing and Musical Theatre Scenes classes, staged play readings, 24-hour play festival and Senior Capstones. There are often opportunities to perform with visiting guest artists as well.
Each year, the Dance Program produces the Dance Minor Spring Concert to showcase our students. The dance minor program brings in guest artists for this event enabling the student to perform in the same concert with professionals in the field. Student works are also included for the spring concert in Russell Auditorium or in a separate showing in Miller Studio.
