Hands on. Real. Resume-building. Effective.
All
these have been used to describe the University of Saint Mary theatre program.
As a theatre major, you'll learn the ins-and-outs of theatre on
the university's newly renovated Xavier Theatre stage. Before you take
the stage, USM's dedicated and experienced theatre professors will help
you develop an imaginative approach to theatre, both as a performer,
director and technician. That's right! You get a "behind the scenes" education
into what it takes to put a four-star performance into action!
Theatre experiences include a four show season of main-stage productions, one-act plays, mime shows, area children 's theatre tours and senior projects. USM is the perfect place to build your resume and take a bow! Recent graduates include soap opera star and music video director Dallas Henry, public relations director for the Kennedy Center, Joy Johnson, and working actresses, Heidi Stubblefield, Katie Gilchrist and Vanessa Campagna.
