About the course

The drama program at Tufts provides a strong liberal arts approach to the creative, historical, and aesthetic dimensions of theatre arts. It fosters critical thinking and imaginative challenges, whether through experiences with literature and history or participation in performance.The department is -knit, with students knowing faculty well (and on a first-name basis). Drama offers a full range of expertly taught courses and exciting faculty-directed productions side-by-side with several active student organizations that continuously produce performances. Students have the opportunity to pursue multiple interests in our program and can be involved in a number of ways: as actors, directors, designers, technicians, and/or producers. They do not have to limit themselves to any one area of expertise and value the flexibility they find here.We prize the -knit structure of our undergraduate program. Students come to know faculty well during their time in the department, and faculty take an active interest in students' progress. Course evaluations describe our faculty as dynamic, caring, and enthusiastic participants in students' development.
