SUNY Cortland’s theatre program offers a solid foundation for students interested in theatre as a career or as broadening college experience. In exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of theatre, students can obtain experience in the mounting of major stage productions as well as in smaller, more innovative theatre activities. Acting, directing, technical theatre, arts management, musical theatre, theatre history and criticism are areas that students can examine.
