The Academic Theatre Program at CCBC accommodates students who wish to pursue further academic study in theatre, students who wish to pursue a career in professional theatre, non-theatre students who wish to take theatre arts electives and students who wish to enhance their understanding and appreciation of the theatre.
You'll gain a global perspective of theatre's influence and place in history, train in large and small performing spaces and study with experienced faculty who are all working professionals. You'll also be able to participate in five academic productions each year, including the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival. The associate degrees are designed to help you transfer to a four-year B.A. or B.F.A. degree program in Theatre.
If you'd like to know more about the Academic Theatre program, or just ask about taking a class, talk to one of our program coordinators!
