Theatre and Performance PhD

Return to: Department/Program
The graduate programs in theatre and performance feature a unique integration of scholarship and practice. We believe that if you know something theoretically but don’t know it practically, then you don’t truly understand its whole theory. Conversely, if you know something practically but don’t know it theoretically, then you don’t truly understand its whole practice. This program is designed to foster scholar artists who are well versed in research, scholarship and performance practice.

Required Core (9 credits)
Theatre Seminars (12 credits)
At least one course from each of the following sections:
Dramatic Literature, Theory Criticism (3-6 credits)
Theatre Historiography (3-6 credits)

Elective Courses (33 credits)
With the understanding that Theatre & Performance Studies are inherently multidisciplinary, PhD Students are required to take graduate credits outside the department. These courses are selected to enhance and enrich a student’s perspective through the study of other fields’ methodologies, literature, and scholarship. Courses may include those in the humanities, such as English, Visual Studies, Media Study, as well as those in relevant social sciences, such as Anthropology, History, and Sociology. Courses are selected in concert with the student’s stated field of specialization and in consultation with a departmental advisor and the DGS.
