The Department of Theater and Dance provides a dynamic environment for the study of theater and dance. The mission of the department is to develop and nurture students' capacity for self-expression and critical thinking; to train actors, dancers, designers, directors, and playwrights for professional work; to provide students with a general education through the media of dance, performance, and theater; and to train graduate students as scholars and teachers.
The department curriculum and production season provide ample opportunities for participation in theater and dance productions and workshop activities in four performance venues. Each season, the department presents 5 main stage plays ranging from the classics to a LAUNCH PAD preview production of a new play, 3 main stage dance concerts including our professional company in residence Santa Barbara Dance Theater, and dozens of second stage productions both in theater and dance. In addition to working with the faculty, the department is a magnet for professional guest artists and scholars who interact with students throughout the year.
