Overview

Students in the Theatre Emphasis complete intensive coursework in the analysis, theory, and practice of acting and directing, collaborating both within various theatrical styles and across Performing Arts disciplines. CI's faculty's broad and varied expertise will help students find their passion in theatre. The program's curriculum offers intensive practical and conceptual study, while also offering unparalleled opportunities to develop twenty-first century skills like collaborative problem-solving, oral and written communication, visual and textual analysis, and empathy. The Performing Arts Theatre emphasis offer students solid foundations for a wide variety of careers, further studies, and other opportunities ranging from directly theatre-related professions—professional actor (theatre, film, television, industrial, theme-park, cruise ship, etc.), director, playwright, dramaturge, theatre educator (k-12, higher-ed, regional theatre, private coaching), theatrical agent, theatre critic—to lines of work that draw on the valuable transferable skills that characterize the PA-Theatre curriculum—therapist, producer, event planner, special education teacher, performance photographer/videographer, film or television director, arts manager, and myriad other possibilities. Note: Conditional admission is available for students accepted into the Intensive English Program (IEP) at California State University - Northridge.
