Theatre

Southern’s Theatre Department’s mission is to provide comprehensive theatre training of the highest quality, to foster students’ personal and artistic development, and to emphasize experiential learning and access to the profession.

Classes stand at the crossroads of all the arts -- literary, performing, visual, digital, and electronic -- and are open to all students. Whether you are looking for professional training or for a place to explore your artistic side, our classes and productions will strengthen your art and craft and deepen your understanding and appreciation of your own creativity.

The Theater Fund supports this outstanding program that provides access to incredible opportunities to engage in the highest quality artistic experiences -- especially at Southern’s outstanding regional award-winning theater companies. Funding allows students to experience unparalleled access to working with the very best theater professionals as guest artists and designers -- all of whom have Broadway and Off-Broadway credentials. This means that our students graduate with real-world experiences and immediate connections to the performance industry.
