Marquette University Theatre

Mission:

The mission of the Department of Digital Media and Performing Arts is to lay a foundation for our students in the theatrical principles, techniques and practices that will help them realize their potential not only as artists, but also as human beings.

Theatre Study:

Theatre Arts at Marquette is a NAST (National Association of Schools of Theatre) accredited program. This means we are among a select group of programs nation-wide to have been recognized as meeting and maintaining certain standards of excellence in teaching theatre. The department expects its undergraduate students to gain practical experience in every area of theatre, developing all their strengths, even those that had been previously undiscovered. The department believes the hands-on, realized stage experience is just as important as classroom work.
