SCHOOL OF ARTS & HUMANITIES Theatre Arts A.S. SOME LOVE TO BE ON STAGE. SOME LOVE TO SET THE STAGE. The theatre arts degree program lets you create drama on-stage or behind the scenes. MCC theatre arts students can experience the excitement of theatrical performance or the artistic satisfaction of technical theatre and stage craft. Either way, you’ll have many opportunities to bring your talents center stage—including musical, comedy and dramatic productions, to children's theatre and summer Shakespeare. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION This program provides a strong foundation for transferring to a four-year theatrical performance or technical theatre program. In addition to liberal arts coursework, you will take electives and workshops in theatrical performance or technical theatre—including analyzing scripts, acting techniques, and the technical aspects of theatrical productions. Throughout the year you’ll produce and perform plays and musicals for a public audience. “Theatre brought me out of my shell...I knew with our first performance workshop that I was hooked!” - Erika A., MCC student CURRICULUM OVERVIEW Please note: Courses are subject to change.
