At the heart of the theatre arts major is our firm belief that a liberal arts education is inseparable from the artist s process. Theatre is, by its very nature, a multidisciplinary art form; complementary courses in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences can help you understand the societal issues and contexts that both shape and are shaped by this compelling art form. As a theatre arts major at Clark you will learn by doing, with a balance between a strong liberal arts education and intensive study in your chosen focus area: acting, directing, technical theatre, playwriting, dance or dramaturgy.
