Dance: MinorÂ
Act, dance, direct, design, or stage manage. With numerous production opportunities throughout the year, students studying theatre can try on many different hats — figuratively and literally. Recognized for its high standards of training and the quality of its productions, the Department of Theatre and Dance at º£½ÇÉçÇø provides a nurturing and supportive environment for students to express themselves and develop their artistic capabilities in a collaborative environment.
