Program Long Title

Bachelor of Arts in Theatre - Musical Theatre

Program Description

Students majoring in theatre at Winthrop University will experience a program that encourages a breadth of knowledge that includes production work as well as performance. All theatre majors have opportunities to assume artistic leadership roles during their academic careers in the department. Advanced students take on lead acting roles, design duties, stage management positions, technical direction responsibilities, box office management, direction, and more. Very few undergraduate programs offer these many opportunities for students to perform, design, direct, choreograph, stage manage, and run productions.
Students continue with focused coursework in acting and pursue advanced courses in musical theatre, including voice and dance, and they select a minor to complement their theatre studies.
