Theatre Arts - Furman University

Theatre Arts from Furman University is a Campus Bachelor Theatre degree that prepares you for a Art and Design career. A vast assortment of opportunities and experiences is available to theatre majors at Furman. They are able to practice and learn theatre arts firsthand by playing a role in a campus production, designing the lighting, costumes or scenery for a play, directing a one-act or full-length production, or studying the history and literature of modern and classic theatre . One of the Furman theatre department's primary goals is to produce graduates who excel in all areas of theatre art. At Furman, theatre students are never strictly actors or technicians. Instead, they work as actors, stage managers, designers, dramaturgs, crew members, house managers or publicists, thereby acquiring a thorough understanding of the many facets that combine to form the theatrical experience. Ginni Terry, a Furman graduate who spent six months with a national touring company of A Chorus Line before completing her college career, says that in the Furman theatre program, ?You're always encouraged to challenge yourself and to tap your own creativity, not just in performing, but in all areas. You emerge very well-rounded, so if you're serious about a career as an actor, it makes you a better performer, and if you're interested more in the technical side, it makes you that much better because you understand how everything in the theatre works together.''
