Actors, designers, directors and technicians collaborate to inform and entertain us. As a theatre major, you can design and build stage sets, create costumes, and give television and stage characters personality. You can combine the words and ideas of the playwright, the movement and voices of the actors, and the scenic support of the designers and technicians to educate and entertain as a theatre major at Marquette.
Drama, comedy, music, dance.
As a theatre major, you'll develop your craft starting in your first year through five main-stage productions, as well as dance concerts and studio productions.
