Eastern Connecticut State University

The Theatre Program + Performance Media Program offers many opportunities for students to work on-stage, backstage and front-of-house through classes, independent studies, internships, and practicum work. Students also showcase their talents in full-length major productions, one-acts, original plays and staged readings. Students can also join an active Drama Society, DTM Club and Film Club. The Theatre Program + Performance Media Program is housed in Eastern’s beautiful Fine Arts Instructional Center, which opened in January 2016. The new building features a Proscenium Thrust Theatre, a Studio Theatre with flexible seating, performance/dance labs, and state-of-the-art classrooms. Performances in other sites throughout the campus and on tour are offered as well. Touring opportunities include the NYC Showcase of Student Talent in New York City; the Los Angeles Spring Break Program; the Prague Quadrennial program. The Theatre Program + Performance Media Program also has guest artist residencies built into it each semester.
