About the program
Located in a picturesque valley in southeast Minnesota, the Theatre & Dance Department (THAD) at Winona State University offers a stimulating and enriching experience through the undergraduate theatre major, theatre minor and dance minor programs, within a supportive liberal arts context.
Theatre majors and minors focus on foundational skills in acting, directing and design, and dance minors study movement techniques, improvisation and composition. Both theatre and dance students examine the history and theory of their disciplines and acquire integrated kinesthetic, cognitive and creative skills as they develop their unique artistic voices.
Through class and production experiences, non-major students also have the opportunity to enrich their lives through the performing arts and gain access to their creative potential, which is an essential skill in any field.
The entire Winona State University community benefits from the richly varied and high quality theatre and dance events produced throughout the year by the department. Winona State University is an accredited member of the National Association of Schools of Theatre.
