Our Values:
Our Values:
The most instructive way to learn technical acting is to develop the art form through the process of analyzing and responding to the language and skills of theatre. Including the development of mental skills and comprehension of theatre vocabulary.
Students should be given opportunities to develop creative expression in theatre through improvisation, creativity, and performance.
Students gain an understanding of the historical contributions and the cultural dimensions of acting as they learn the theatre discipline.
Students should be given an opportunity to develop an aesthetic value in their work and work of others.
Students apply what they learn in theatre to learning across subject areas.
Fostering professional and supportive relationships with our students is key to developing the artistic self.
Students should be encouraged to sustain awareness of the theatre community and be inspired to become an active supporter or professional member of the local and global theatre industries.
