How large is GVSUs Theatre Arts program?
Theatre is the smallest program in the School of Communications, largely because of the highly competitive nature of the career field. That is, it’s a lot harder to find work as a theatre artist than it is to build a career in film, television, advertising, or corporate communications. Hence, most students in the School of Communications are attracted to some of these other areas. At present, there are about seventy Theatre students, although the Theatre program involves more than 200 students annually from all areas of the University. Only 2 – 3 are interested in Theatre Management.
