Theatre
Mission Statement
In accordance with the Adrian College mission statement of pursuing truth and dignity of all people, through a community of scholarship and artistry, the Theatre Program offers opportunities to study the creativity of humanity via the context of a liberal arts environment. Knowledge of and appreciation for the art of theatre and dance are important aspects in a society that wishes to maintain its culture, consciousness, and compassion. While seeking a balance between theoretical and applied material, the Theatre Program creatively engages students to establish connections in many disciplines through their own means of personal expression.
The Theatre Program believes the study of the performing arts embodies interpersonal connectivity by fostering skills required of critical evaluation of literature, history, and theory. The program focuses on the development of collaboration, analytical thinking, professionalism, technique, and establishing meaning and value.
