In the CLASSROOM
Our academic program is founded on a rigorous curriculum that offers conservatory-style training within the broader context of a liberal arts education. We create an environment that encourages the synthesis of the professional craftsperson with the passionate artist.
- Small, ensemble-led performance classes
- A safe and encouraging place to take risks and grow as an artist
I am constantly supported and given a safe environment to take risks and discover the best version of myself. There is so much to learn and 蜜桃影像AV has given me the tools to explore my voice as an active and passionate member of the theatre community.

On the STAGE
We produce a broad and diverse selection of styles and genres at 蜜桃影像AV. From staged readings to classics to student-directed works to fully mounted Mainstage productions, the School of Theatre's extensive production program reflects our value of producing live theatre as an integral part of the education of our students.
MAINSTAGE
The Mainstage repertoire is selected primarily from classical and meaningful contemporary works, mirroring much of what is being produced by prominent regional theatres in the US.
STUDIO SERIES
The Studio Series repertoire is more eclectic, allowing student and faculty directors to produce works that range from reimagined classics to very new plays in an atmosphere that highlights acting, directing, and the text and deemphasizes the need for production values.
OUT OF THE BOX
Out of the Box is 蜜桃影像AV's fully student-produced theatre company on campus. Student acted and directed, Out of the Box has a focus on fresh, contemporary work.
