Theater and Dance are among the richest and most rewarding of educational disciplines. They combine interests in creative arts, humanities, and social sciences. Through their integration of thinking and doing, of analysis and creative problem solving, they develop the mind, body, sensibility, and imagination. We offer a Theater Studies major and minor, a Dance major and minor, and a joint major in Playwriting with the Creative Writing Program. Each area has its own focus and requirements.Our course of study offers a broad-based liberal arts education that not only challenges and develops the student in our discipline, but also offers practical preparation for a variety of careers, including law, business, medicine, education, and communications. Excellent teaching and mentoring are high priorities for the faculty and interactions occur in a variety of settings: small classes, individual consultations, master classes, rehearsals, and performances. The major and minor require a study of the various subfields of theater, with a strong core of dramatic literature. Advanced courses in all areas are available. Theater Emory offers an opportunity unique in undergraduate theater education: the opportunity to work with professionals in an Equity company, where all casting is age appropriate and where students may play central and substantial supporting roles. Four student theater groups offer other opportunities to act, direct, design, produce, and stage manage. Emory's unique combination of a liberal arts undergraduate program and a professional theater provide a strong and flexible training ground.
