Minor in Theatre
The theatre minor is designed to be an enhancement to a major area of study and/or personal enrichment. The minor should be particularly attractive to students in the humanities (English), communication (Film, Journalism), and the arts (Music, Architecture). The minor may also be attractive to students who need to demonstrate a wide range of interests.

The theatre minor requirements total 18 hours. Theatre 100 GA;US;IL, a required course in the minor, is an experiential survey of all aspects of the living theatre, as presented by a resident company of theatre artists. Theatre 410, an advanced script analysis course, is also required. Students choose one course from the approved list of theatre history courses and one course from the approved list of design/technical courses. These supporting courses place the literature and aesthetic in historical, social, and political perspective. Students elect 6 theatre credits as additional courses. Typical supporting courses include: Theatre 102 GA, fundamentals of acting; THEA 208 GA;US;IL, Workshop: Theatre in Diverse Cultures; and advanced design or theatre history classes.

A grade of C or better is required for all courses in the minor.

PLEASE NOTE: Entrance into the theatre minor does not guarantee entrance into any theatre course.  Students are advised to schedule minor courses as soon as possible since no scheduling priority is available.
