• Expert Faculty: Our faculty team, who are all working professionals, will work alongside students to help them cultivate their imagination, strengthen their voice, and stretch their potential as unique theatre-makers, creators, and activists. Theatre faculty have regional and international recognition with expertise in the gamut of theatre disciplines.  
• Student Opportunities: Students have opportunities to perform in the fall play and spring musical, produce their own work on the mainstage through the 10-Minute Play Festival, and participate in other curricular and extracurricular theatre activities including senior showcases.  
• Study Abroad Opportunities: Students have an opportunity to study for a semester at the Los Angeles Film Studies Center, taking classes and interning with top casting agencies and production companies. Students may also participate with other college programs at the National Theatre Institute in Connecticut and The Gaiety School of Acting in Dublin.
• Theatre Internships: Our students intern with professional theatres and arts education programs across the country.
• Faith and the Arts: Students examine and reflect on how Christian faith intersects with their art. Each student writes a culminating manifesto that illuminates their vision for their future as theatre makers.
• Preparation for a future in Theatre: The major prepares students for graduate training and employment opportunities in the theater industry.
• Proximity to Resources: Eastern’s proximity to Philadelphia and New York City provides students with a variety of opportunities.

At Eastern, we not only train the voice, mind, and body, but strive to cultivate the soul and spirit of the artist for a well-rounded, holistic Christian worldview. Our proximity to Philadelphia and New York City also provides a wide array of opportunities for internships, employment, and connections.
