About this program

McDaniel College's BA Theatre program trains students in all disciplines of theatrical creation, from acting and writing to set design and lighting. The program is distinctive for its integrated approach: students learn theatrical theory and history in classrooms, then immediately apply those concepts in real productions. The department carefully aligns its production season with course offerings, so students might study classical acting styles and then perform in a Greek drama or Shakespeare production the following semester. With a full and active production slate, the program functions as a laboratory where students hone their craft across acting, technical direction, costume design, lighting, music direction, and stage management. Graduates pursue careers in professional theatre, technical direction, design, teaching, and related fields.
