Set and Costume Construction may be taken any semester. All theatre majors are expected to participate on a minimum of 1 crew each semester whether or not a Theatre scholarship has been awarded. Enroll in 1 unit of Theatrical Production if you have units available. Additional dance courses are recommended if your schedule permits. Enroll in Theatrical Performance for 1-2 units depending on your needs. You must enroll in at least 1 unit when cast. Either Script Analysis OR Playwriting is required. They are offered alternate springs. If you take both, one serves as an elective. If you do not take both you will need an additional 3 elective units. Theatre Internship should be served during the summer, pending approval.

***If all of the dance course options are not taken, you will need to replace them with other elective units.***

This is only for planning purposes; this is not an official document. It is recommended that you meet with an Academic Advisor when you come on campus in the fall.
