What are the acting opportunities?
At the beginning of each semester there are auditions to place students in acting classes and cast productions for the semester. Students may prepare a 2-minute monologue or use material provided on arrival. There are generally 2-3 productions in the Fall semester. In the spring semester there is the Senior Thesis Festival and the spring departmental production. Acting classes are based on subject matter â such as Acting Naturalism or Acting Shakespeare â rather than a consecutive progression. Students are exposed to a variety of acting techniques and may work with one or several different techniques in a course.
