Description

Academics and an exciting and vital production program, led by dedicated faculty and professionals, allow students to develop skills in theatre that will prepare them for numerous production, performance and scholarship opportunities. Students are encouraged to participate in a wide variety of internships and productions while they are at K-State. Local, regional and national auditions and internships in acting, management and technical areas are announced on our internal virtual callboard.
