THEATRE MAGNET CLASS STRUCTURE AND OVERVIEW


Acting Program


Students following the performance track begin with an introductory study of the principles of acting and directing, voice and movement, technical theatre, and theatre history and criticism. After their freshman year, the students further their performance skills through specialized courses in acting and directing. During their study, students have the opportunity to work in two state-of-the-art theatres: a traditional proscenium house and an intimate black box theatre. By their senior year, performance students move toward independent projects in acting or directing.

Throughout these studies, each student develops an audition portfolio and a resume to prepare for college or casting opportunities.

Design and Production Program


Technical theatre practitioners need a full view of theatre. Consequently, the technical theatre students begin, like the performance students, with an introductory study of the principles of acting and directing, voice and movement, technical theatre, and theatre history and criticism. After the freshman year, these students continue with advanced technical theatre, designing and working on in-class projects and on the many productions that are mounted throughout the year. These students have the opportunity to work in both a traditional proscenium house and a black box theatre, using state of the art lighting and sound systems. By their senior year, technical theatre students are placed into practical experiences, some of which are at off-campus theatres.
