About this program

The Bachelor of Arts in Communication & Theatre at SWOSU is offered through the Department of Art, Communication and Theatre and provides two emphasis tracks: Strategic Communications and Theatre. SWOSU Theatre is a robust and practical professional training program. Students develop skills in acting, directing, script analysis, dramaturgy, and stage management. They also have the opportunity to gain specialist training in design and technical labs. The Hilltop Theatre is a 300-seat black box space which boasts a full-time scenic construction and painting lab, costume and textiles lab, and a kitted-out control booth with ETC lighting and state-of-the-art audio equipment — not only for live productions but also for radio plays and voice work. Students staff the labs, design the shows, and are heavily involved in community outreach. The department produces 3-5 fully realized productions each season as well as a variety of smaller scholar talks, screenings, and other events. The Strategic Communications emphasis offers opportunities for students to gain knowledge and skills across mass communication disciplines. The Art, Communication and Theatre department is also host to The Southwestern, an award-winning multimedia news outlet.
