Trinity University Drama Program

:: Mission
Trinity University's Drama program provides theatrical education and experience for both our students and the larger community within the context of the liberal arts and sciences tradition. Central to that tradition is the ongoing investigation of what it means to be human, including the realization of self-potential, the recognition of responsibilities toward others, and the capability to make reasonable choices. To these ends the Drama program attempts to provide both major and non-major students with the opportunity to cultivate those skills and points of view essential to a liberal arts and sciences experience. Within this framework

we are committed to the development of creative abilities in the performing arts; artistic discipline in acting, directing, and design for theatre; historical and analytical skills for understanding the history and contributions of the theatrical arts and dramatic literature in a wide variety of cultural contexts; communication and organizational abilities through theatrical productions and respect for diversity in the collaborative process of making theatre. Students should acquire the requisite intellectual background and essential artistic experience necessary to pursue careers or further study in a wide range of human endeavor and professional opportunity. Perhaps more importantly, we believe that they will better achieve the potential richness of a humane future.
