戏剧研究
Theatre is a collaborative art. Each person in a production plays an important role, working and performing together to create something memorable and truly remarkable. The art involved in such work is obviously important, but the communication that takes place between artists and audience is also a key to creating dynamic art. At 资本, 戏剧研究 is a co-curricular program. This means that you’ll gain a strong liberal arts foundation in your coursework, and then you’ll practice your learning through participating in an active production season. 如果表演是你的激情所在, you may find yourself in a role on the main stage or even participating in ensemble and group work in the prestigious 音乐学院. If your interests are in managing or creating productions, you’ll have numerous experiences designing scenery, 导演戏剧, 运行的声音, 营销我们的节目.

“When I started at 资本, I had no idea where that journey would take me. I met countless kind, dedicated, hardworking, talented, highly intelligent people. capfam是真实存在的. My very first film role was in a student film at 资本 and it was in those student films and productions at the Cabaret Theatre that I developed and sharpened my skills, both as an actor and as a 导演.”
