Theatre at Loyola
Our goal is to prepare students for the rigorous
demands of working in the professional theatre or further study on the
graduate level. Required coursework is designed to expose students to all
aspects of the collaborative process – acting, directing, designing, and
dramaturgy. Plays are taught not as literature but as blueprints for
theatrical production.
Essential to our training is required participation in our season. There
is no pre-casting and no exclusion of underclassman. We are committed to
mounting a wide range of plays, exposing students to a wide variety of
dramatic literature and a variety of production styles. At Loyola, you
will gain valuable experience for your growth as a theatre artist.
The Theatre program at Loyola College
builds on the longstanding tradition of Jesuit involvement in the
theatre. In the contemporary sense, this means a dedication to the cura
personalis: a care for the whole person. Through the teaching of
theatre, Loyola seeks to produce well-rounded students able to synthesize
theory and practice, body and mind, interpretation and action.
