Theatre AA

Associate of Arts

Arts and Communication

This program is designed for students who want to emphasize the theatre arts in their undergraduate studies. Theatre at NIC serves students pursuing a wide range of career paths; not only those interested in professional performance. Through the study of communication, critical thinking, problem solving, and the development of literary, physical, technical, and psychological/emotional skills, students gain a strong foundation for success in many fields. The curriculum also offers opportunities for students to explore performance and storytelling across multiple mediums, providing additional creative outlets, aligning with contemporary industry expectations, and strengthening transfer pathways into acting, film, media arts, and interdisciplinary performing arts programs at four-year institutions. There are no program prerequisites. Previous experience is helpful. Scholarships are available. Participation in theatre requires some evenings and weekends.
