The Design and Production area provides the design and technical elements for the School of Theatre and Bass School of Music. Each year we produce five main stage theatre productions, two fully mounted musicals and two operas, eight Stage II plays, and five children's theatre productions. Design and production opportunities are structured to give the students practical, realized projects where they are expected to synthesize and apply skills gained in the classroom and from previous experiences. The production assignments will regularly stretch and challenge the students, continually expanding their capabilities as they develop in a mentored environment. Our students continue to develop their craft during the summer. Design and production majors typically spend their summers working in the profession. In recent years, OCU students have earned positions and internships with: Cirque du Soleil, Santa Fe Opera, Walt Disney World, Great River Shakespeare Festival, Music Theatre of Wichita, Glimmerglass Opera, Busch Gardens Theme Park, Shakespeare Festival of New Jersey, Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theatre, Light Opera Oklahoma, and Black Hills Playhouse The BFA in Design and Production offers students professional theatrical training within the broader context of a liberal arts education. The BFA degree provides strong foundational knowledge in all areas of theatre design, technology, and management. The program seeks to prepare students to enter the fields of theatre design, theatrical production, entertainment technology, and stage management. The program will also prepare students for graduate study in design and production.
