About

Theatre at Wake Forest University

Each season, Wake Forest’s University Theatre mounts a variety of subscription series productions, two dance concerts, and numerous student-directed and designed pieces. Students learn through work on productions—whether in the rehearsal hall or design labs–as well as through classwork in acting, directing, design, playwriting, voice and movement, history, dramatic literature, theatre education, and technical theatre. Whatever your passion is or becomes, you can create your own theatre adventure.

We believe that excellence in both the arts and academics is not only possible but desirable. You will work closely with a vigorous faculty on a wide variety of creative and scholarly projects. You’ll enjoy the benefits of a nationally ranked university with small classes, impressive facilities, and an active theatre program, and you’ll grow as both academics and artists. College is for learning—through books and lectures, certainly, but also through self-exploration and creative expression. You’ll find a creative home at Wake that is inspiring, friendly, and rich with possibilities.
